Sampled on 8/1/05: Clear, deep mahogany with a nicely-lacing off-white head. Sweet deep caramel toffee aroma has some nice light fruity complexity. Body has lots of dense, sweet malt with notes of cherries, toffee and butterscotch. Nicely balanced with a warming, complex finish. This seems a bit young and alcoholic, but should age very well.

Murky brown brew with a faint head. Theres a slight tartness to this brew that reminds me of grape skins. Lots of rich plum flavor with a little caramel sweetness. Unusual but very enjoyable.
