| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Minimal head, nice dark color, but the taste is off, with lots of sweetness, that reminds me of cough syrup.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 24, 2008 bottle poured a red brown in color with a fizzy head that immediately disappeared. aroma is sweet with banana toffee and plumb. mouth feel is medium with fairly hefty carbonation. flavor is surprisingly rich but the sweetness nears too much, touches of wood and dark fruit, banana perhaps from the yeast. becomes richer as it warmed with more malt coming forward. i did warm up to this towards the end but the sweetness is just a bit too much and the alcohol stays noticeable. dkachur (2409), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
