Jan 27, 2008 On tap at the 2008 Stone Winter Storm. Wait...no spices used here? Really? Hard to believe. Reminds me of a quadruple-style Belgian. Pours a hazy brown color with a bit of cascading beige head, eventually settling out to fine microbubble lace. Probably my favorite Epic so far. Sugary malty aroma with notes of figs, tea spices and chocolate. The flavor is elegant raisin, plum and port wine with toasty Belgian yeast . Finishes sweet and dry. Classic!

Aug 4, 2005 Dark amber pour with a quickly dissipating head. Fruity aroma with cloves and spice. Taste features heavy bourbon notes, a little bit of chocolate, more cloves, cherry... very spicy and has a nice alcohol bite to it. I really like this one... too bad I’m too impatient for wait for it to age, I’m sure it would be even better.

Dec 24, 2005 Poured a translucent deep brown, a reddish brown when held to the light. Off-white head hung around for a while. Big spiciness in the nose with some caramel malts too. Smells yummy. Flavor is just as spicy with some sweet malts in there too, herbal. Creamy mouthfeel....very pleasant drink. Nice hop presence about midway through. Alcohol is persistent throughout...right up to the final swig. Very tasty...I liked it more than the 04-04-04.

Jun 27, 2005 Pours a clear deep crimson with a creamy head and weepy lacing. Alcohol and fruit in the nose. Caramel, fruit and spicy notes in flavor. Nice robust flavors that will hold up for a while. Must try one with some age on it.

May 8, 2005 Updated: May 10, 2005Re-rate 5-9-05. After having another one I have to say this is growing on me.Starting to suggest a cross between Rochefort and Hacker Pschorr Weiss Bock. Odd, but it works. Original rating-Chestnut colored brew raising a 1/2 inch tan head. Nose is yeasty with some alcohol heat. First sip makes me think of a juiced up hefe, all banana and clove. then it settles into some rich maltinesss that doesnt quite fill things out. Almost like a rochefort light. Still a decent brew that should make it another 7 years(hopefully).

Jul 13, 2005 Pours dark ruby with a long lasting tan head. Really good appearance. Smell had toffee, lemon, banana, chocolate, orange and cranberry . The cranberry was very good in the flavor. The flavor was like a Tripel with cranberry added to it. This is really pleasing. I am raving because I like it so much better than the 04. I’m glad I have another one to age.
