Gift from a friend near Fullerton. Reminds me a lot of Kuhnhenn 4th Dementia. Pours a candy amber color with a fleeting beige head. Tastes of juicy red grapes, caramel, oak, and a warming amount of alcohol. The flavor expretly seems to masque the massive ABV. Well done.

Dec 13, 2009 A Mes rate. Bottle at Borefts 10am day after hotel tasting.
Murky brown colour with a thin beige head. This is a big beer. Apples, caramel, lots of oak and vanilla, some coffee and chocolate and a shit load of burnt sugar. Lots of dark dried fruit notes. A little hot on the finish. Excellent silky mouthfeel. Very good but just too sweet for me to really get excited.

Dec 7, 2009 Absolutely brilliant. Big sweet bourbon just melts on the palate with the chocolate and caramel. Yeast character is very mild. Heavy bodied and creamy. Oak provides sweet vanilla undertones feeding the overall warmth.

Dec 2, 2009 Pours a murky brown. Low carbonation. This is a huge beer, that would probably benefit from several years of aging. Caramel and toffee aroma. Flavor is quite sweet, with hints of vanilla, piney hops, and more toffee. Nice.

Nov 30, 2009 Shared w/ Simon. Super rich. An hour long sipper for sure. But one of the better beers I’ve had from the Wheat beer bruery.

Nov 28, 2009 Bottle thanks to j12601. Pours dark brown with absolutely no head (although a lot of sediment in the bottle...). Aroma of raisin, prunes, sweet sweet malt. One of the worst smelling beers I’ve encountered. Kind of makes me want to vomit...Flavor is so sickly sweet, sticky, and boozy. Wow, this is an absolutely awful beer and even one sip is painful. One of the worst beers I’ve encountered in quite awhile.
