Feb 5, 2009 Brewed in the USA......Courtesy of AFI96 thanks waylo !!! Pours a dark amber color with a med-foamy off white head. Aroma of leather, funk and grains. Taste of straw, grass, honey and earth. The mouthfeel is ok and finishes on the dry side. This brew to me was like drinking a very bad dopplebock.

Feb 3, 2009 A wonderful little gift from Mike, in Buffalo. A style I do like, an old ale, this was a cross between that and a winter warmer and an ESB. Wonderfully tamed hops and barley, with a fruitiness. Marvellous drinkability.Pours dark fruity brown with a minor white head. Fruitiness in aroma. ABove average mouthfeel.

Jan 31, 2009 Bottle, Cole’s Rare Beer fest. Light brown, small off white head. Roasty hoppy aroma. Taste is more roast, some hops, and a very burnt finish. Decent but simple straightforward stuff.

Jan 25, 2009 Bottle courtesy of sloth. Copper color ok initial head. Aroma of sweet dark malts, molasses, some dark fruits, light chocolate, pine. The flavor followed the aroma, brown sugar also in there, the pine and dark malts just not working at all for me, clashing in many ways. I am a huge Troegs homer fan, drinking all their regulars, knowingly over-appreciative of even their Dream Weaver Wheat, but this I couldn’t even try to like more. Mouthfeel was moderate, a little underattenuated, spicey, but finishing with a bit of bitterness (earthy bittering hops). Oh well, this is why it’s a scratch brew. Carry, on, Troegs Bros! Thanks, Bert!

Jan 20, 2009 deep ruby-caramel color with a thick foamy light tan head. lightly piney aroma with a yeasty sweetness to it. roasted malt in the front followed by an oaky, winey finish but something seems to be missing in the middle and the mouthfeel is a bit thin or watery.
