Guinness4Duff (456), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA Aug 20, 2008 Bottle. Clear mohoganey pour with a thick off white head. Strong aroma like that of a quality dark German lager, a little malty with a good hop presence. Nice flavor, a little sweet, a little roasted and a nice hop finish with an extra little nutty roastedness to it. Nice body to it as well, a nicely put together beer. Merrill (20), Chicago, Illinois, USA Aug 19, 2008 Cold bottle from Beach Liquors, Bethany , De. whiskey brown color, off whit head with thin short-lived laceSpicey malt aromea with slight acid alcohol sharpness. Rich-malty round flavor, caramel, chocolate, some wood and raison. Reminiscent of Unibroue Terrible or even a light version of DFH Raison d’Etre. crisp finish. I’ll drink at least 4 of these... DandyWolfFloyd (225), Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 19, 2008 Aroma is stuffed full of dark malts, noticably molasses and dark syrups. It’s dark in color, like a dark red-brown. The head is small, with a light white collar. It’s flavor is full, with a bit of strong malt bodies, the molasses is not overwhelming, the dark barley malts are balanced well with the sweet malts. It’s a pleasant drink. Very well balanced, not too much alcohol, not too sweetness. Steinface (63), Hatfield, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 15, 2008 Very bready taste, and suprisingly smooth for the alcohol content. Not my favorite, but would surely drink again beautifulmess (4), Hackettstown, New Jersey, USA does not count Aug 8, 2008 Smooth, smooth, smooth. @ 8%, I can’t detect a trace of alcohol. I love this beer as a whole. It really is an original. Honey and bread, with a nutty finish. Poo-Zim-Pee-La!
