Sep 16, 2006 Updated: Sep 17, 20062005 bottle tasted Sept. 2006
Pours a deep red-brown with a medium-sized tan head. The aroma is plum and raisin, a touch of alcohol, some smoke. This one offers up a rich malty flavor, full and quite complex without going the bit over the top -- toffee and coffee and dark fruit, hints of smoke, a bit of tart blackberry, a nice woody hop finish. The carbonation is relatively low, the mouthfeel is rich without being sticky in the least - that’s very nice.
I like this beer; it’s interesting and easy to enjoy.

Sep 12, 2006 Dark as night. Chewy malts all the way. Perhaps a bit too sweet for my taste. But very rich and full, complex taste.

Sep 11, 2006 Poured from the bottle, a dark cola-like brown with a little carbonation and no head. Aroma of sweet molasses, along with a fruit hoppiness. Medium mouthfel with a little bit of that carbonation. Sweet at first, then some cloves, syrupy and oak in the finish. Easier to drink than the 7.2%, but just OK.

Sep 7, 2006 Bottle, purchased at The Holiday Wine Cellar in Escondido, CA. Pours extremely dark opaque brownish red. The head is pillowy and relatively large. The aroma is sweet and malty and begs for a sip. It is malty with sweet and bitter aftertaste. I may have had this before but got inspired by somone I met at O’Brien’s to try it again. The beer is interesting and different, but not my favorite.

Sep 4, 2006 Bottle. Dark brown-copper with a small foamy brownish head. The aroma consists of nutty hazelnut, caramel, sweet chocolate roastiness - very rich and complex. The flavour is quite nice too. Coating smooth body with toasty caramel nuttiness, almonds, and mild bitterness. Great, tasty stuff.
