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.

May 23, 2006 Julios Spring Beer Festival. Pour of slightly murkied medium nut brown, with ruddy fringes. Light fragrant gentle aroma of red plums and sweet melons. Rich and warmingly alcoholic taste of sweet brown sugar and a touch of almond paste. The malty crispness bellows through the light floral fruits and shows a rearing head of nipping alcohols. One lick from a good chocolate bar. A touch of euro hops round out for good balance. Well done.

May 21, 2006 Sample at Julio’s beer festival: Dark brown body. Malt dominated with chocolate and caramel. Lingering finish on the tongue. Nice, first one of the day and probably the best.

Apr 16, 2006 Bottle. Pours deep mahogany with dense beige head. The aroma is clean and malty with some cream and some roasty notes. The flavor is slightly alcoholic with roasted malt, vanilla bean, and burned coffee. Pretty good.

Jan 19, 2007 Updated: Apr 6, 2007Dark brown pour with cherry wood hues, fully diminishing tan head, light lacing. Aroma is sweet cherries, caramel malt, chocolate, lesser molasses, brown sugar and anise. Flavor is more of the same without the anise component. Palate is generous, full and velvety for a bock beer. Finishes with a touch of creamy sweet malt and smoke. Pretty good, had hoped for a lot more.
