Slight cream colored head with a bit of lace and some floaties. Aroma of dried figs and lots of malt. Crisp mouthfeel with slightly sour aftertaste. Although I can taste the alcohol a bit, it’s hard to believe this is 12%.

Aug 13, 2008 Little Bottle from The Belfast Co-op. Pours cloudy orange with a bright white ring. Nose is sweet but strange. Taste is strange, pretty boozy and overall weird.

Jul 2, 2008 On tap at Ebenezer Kezers in Lovell, ME... poured fairly clean and just a touch fizzy. Smelled of fresh fruit, sourness detectable, a hint of malt. Was fairly sour tasting with a touch of Brett horsiness.

Jun 22, 2008 Bottle. Miedium high but quickly disappearing offf-white head. Hazy dark orange red body. Vineous spicy fruity caramel roasted malt aroma. Pretty carbonated and yet smooth and mild fealing flavor of raisins plums caramel and bitterness in the background. Alcohol well hidden. Low carbonation. Long aftertaste.

Jun 18, 2008 Updated: Jul 31, 200833 cl. Opaque, violet-chestnut with a small head that makes a lasting creamy ring. Aroma is earthy, spicy-sweet raisin bread with sugary icing. Flavor is dark fruit mulled with winter spices - juniper, brown sugar, maybe some slight nutmeg, lemon peel and a dash of white pepper. Some hints of sour leather and a delicate woody bitterness tame the big malt and show up more noticeably in the finish. Medium body is a little thin and slightly dry.
