The mild aroma was hoppy malty and brown malt. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish mild vinous hop aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of malt hops and vinous. This brew gave me the beer shivers! hopscotch (5483), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 8, 2006 Bottle... Murky, nut brown ale with a small, creamy, beige head. Nose of cocoa, bourbon, vanilla and wood. Malty, earthy flavor with big chocolate, bourbon and just-short-of heavily bitter grapefruit rind. Actually leans on the bitter side of balance. Full-bodied with a syrupy mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Finishes bourbony, bitter and warming. A BIG NOD goes out to jjpm74 for shipping this bottle my way! jhumphries69 (726), Tyrone, Georgia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 3, 2006 Pours very dark, thick, cloudy brown with virtually no head. When shaken in a brandy glass, a small, tan head forms - consisting mostly of very large bubbles. The aroma has chocolate, some dried fruit, a decent bit of hops, a decent bit of alcohol, and hints of oak. The flavor starts bittersweet with a good bit of fruity hop bitterness, some fruit, and some malts. The middle of the flavor presents some smoke, some vanilla, some chocolate, and signs of carbonation prickling the tongue. The finish is long and quite dry - with flavors of bitter cocoa and hops. The mouthfeel is thick and almost flat.
