Jul 24, 2006 Bottle. Pours with a dark brown cloudy body and an off-white head. Aroma is sweet and bready, and the flavor follows suit. Alot of biscuits and molasses in the taste. Quite good, but not outstanding.

Jun 21, 2006 Updated: Aug 12, 2006Stone does it again! I enjoyed the 05-05 Epic (have 1 left), so I had to buy a case of the 06-06. Seems to be a little darker than 05, and a little more fig/vanilla aroma and aftertaste. Seems to have a nice chewy thick aftertaste and it’s balanced and not bitter. I wish I had more refrig space to store this case!

Aug 12, 2007 Bomber via Lubiere, served at cellar temp in a tulip glass. JN12/07.
App.: Deep cola with deep ruby hues, clear, nice tan head.
Aroma: Nutty and sweet, caramel and dark dried fruits; herbs and vanilla – like rootbeer; milk chocolate.
Palate: Medium body and fairly soft carbonation. Smooth.
Flav.: Dark dried fruits, chocolate and vanilla, a touch nutty; semi-sweet, a little alcohol and restrained bitterness.
OK, so I couldn’t wait another 5+ years. Would the beer last that long anyway?

Aug 19, 2008 Tasted around its release date and around the release of 777. The 666 is a great brew. Pours like a dubbel would be all silky and mildy dark. Deep fruity esthers waft off the beer in the malty plum and raisin context. Very smooth and sublte blend of slight roast, nuts, and lots of sweet dark fruits take over the palate with each sip. Definitely has a small lingering chocolate sense. Mild finish. Been hearing this one has been tasting good...glad I saved a few!

Aug 13, 2008 On tap. Pours a dark brown with a large, off-white head. Great lacing. Aroma of coriander, dark malts, caramel and a bit of candi sugar. Taste is malty, coriander, some oxidation, hint of bananas, and some alcohol. Light bubbles and creamy.

Jul 30, 2008 On tap during Stone Fest (Feb, ’08): This poured a deep amber to brown in color with a thin head that dissipated away. Aromas and flavors were quite malty with flavors of fig, caramel and chocolate. This was medium-bodied with nice richness and on the sweet side.

Jul 27, 2009 bottle thanks to TexasJeep. Shared at July tasting at KAggie’s. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Decent lacing. Nose of oak. roast malt, caramel and dark fruit. Taste is of roast malt, oak and some smoke. Mouthfeel is medium-thin with alcohol warmth. This seems sorta like a cross between a porter and a strong ale.
