Jun 13, 2007 Bottle from Kingdom Liquors Brandon, Fl. Pours a clear dark amber with a small long lasting light tan head that leaves some lacing. Aroma of dark fruit, caramel, a touch of roasted malt, and light spicy hops. Taste is very bitter up front then lends way to sweet caramel, dark fruit, and light spicy german hops. Medium full mouthfeel with a solid bitterness and slight alcohol warmth. Different but very good.

Jun 7, 2007 Pours dark amber with a tan head. Aroma of various dark fruits along with a bit of secondary hop aromas. Flavor of brown sugar, bready malts, herbs, and alcohol toward the finish. Nice thick brew. Too bad this costs so much.

Jun 7, 2007 The aroma is sweet with plums, prunes, raisins, earth, herbal hops, rubber, and yeast. The appearance is maroon/brown with a small but persistent head. The flavor is acidic with an astringent bitterness and a mishmash of dark fruit flavor along with earth, butterscotch, and paper. The palate is thick and smooth and probably the bes thing about this beer. At first I thought the alcohol was well hidden but it does develop and overpower especially towards the finish. Overrated but it’s got a mighty nice bottle.

May 8, 2007 Bottle from ross. Thanks. Pours a dark brown amber with a healthy white head. Nose is raisns, musty yeasy, sweet malts, plums, fruitcake and light hoppy aroma. Flavor is sweet, but not cloyingly so. Definite hoppy bitterness noted in the finish. A nice alt, this is a very close to a light barleywine or old ale with a disitinct hoppy presence. In any case, its pretty nice.
