Apr 23, 2009 Tap. Good sweet fruity notes for aroma with a hint of alcohol. Amber body with dirty white head. Sticky sweet fruity flavor. Chewy texture to body that is smooth and a bit dry on the palate. Alcohol shot on the finish a good brew

Apr 17, 2009 Pours amber/copper with a white head. Smells fruity and of sweet malt. Tastes of sweet, tarte, dark fruit, cognac, molasses, some peppery hints on the finish. Alcohol is present. Enjoyable.

Mar 10, 2009 Hazed deep amber with a creamy white head and lace. Cherry sweet, light medicine, and abv on the nose. Grainy maltiness, semi-sweet start with a hard hop bitter. Almost fuel oil smooth carbonation but a tad too slick. Very different not your grandfathers bw.
