May 14, 2009 Location: A friend gave me a 12 oz bottle, I believe it was purchased at a Total Wine in NoVA...it came out of a 6 beer 12 bottle Tommyknocker sampler.
5/14/09
Aroma: Caramel, nuts, chocolate, a very sweet nose
Appearance: Nice brown color, slight red hue, thin off-white/brown head that dissipates quickly, slight lacing
Flavor: Sweet malts dominate the flavor, which is much like the nose
Palate: Lightish body, a little sticky
Overall Impression:
Sure, its a bit thin, bit its not bad. I like what they are trying to do, but it could really use some additional character, as it just isn’t quite there.

Apr 5, 2009 pours garnet red with a thin head on top. Aroma is is faint, toffee meets roasted nuts and mid woody notes. Flavor is odd, initially very sweet, giving way to definite maple tones, followed by a roasted element, moments of burned wheat toast, almonds, slight vanilla, and a dry finish. Not as sweet or cloying as I expected, and generally unoffensive.
