Nov 24, 2005 Dark brown and red body with a thin light brown head. The aroma was light molasses with some chocolate and whiskey. Nice nose. The taste had chocolate, light apples and roasted apple core. There was also bread and maybe a hint of cinnamon. The smooth mouthfeel was impressive. This is obviously a quality brew. I may like it even more if I get to try this one again. One of the better dopples I have tried.

Oct 31, 2005 Thanks to jjpm74 for this wonderful hookup. 04 vintage. Dark brown pour with medium off white head. Caramel and malts make their presence known right away in the aroma. Chocolate and caramel make up the most of this dessert substitute of a beer, with some slight nut, toffee, and dark fruit adding into the mix. Well made, neat bottle, overall solid brew.

Oct 29, 2005 2005 1L bottle courtesy of Swededog! Poured a very deep ruby/brown with a thick initial layer of caramel head.... receded almost completely after a few minutes. Rich roasted malts provided the bulk of the aroma, with coffee, dark fruits (raisins and figs), baker’s chocolate, caramel, and some citrus Pac NW hoppage. Medium-full bodied on the palate, and creamy, yet there was a well-balanced bitter component from the hops. Just fantastic mouthfeel and flavor development. Flavors were of roasted bittersweet chocolate, raisins, fresh roasted coffee, caramel, light citrus, and some cherry tartness. Flavor was just awesomely deep and complex. Really couldn’t find any flaws in this one!

Oct 19, 2005 Bottle: Courtesy of jjpm74 via trade. Aroma is very much like cola syrup with a light spiciness and a hint of fruit. Pours a dark brown with no transparency but some orange hilights around the edges of the glass. Big off-white head with very good retention and great lacing. Flavor of light caramel and light chocolate with a definite cola taste as the leading flavor. Finishes moderately spicey with a cherry tartness and light woodiness.
