Nov 13, 2006 Bottle from Liquid Solutions. Pours thick syrupy maroon color. No head. Rich malty aroma. Slightly sweet. Sweet fruitiness. Some tart aromas as well. Smooth almost slimey mouthfeel. Thick rich malty, dark fruit flavor alon with some hoppy bitterness. Some alcohol is present as well, but only a little. Finish is hop bitterness and alcohol. Good stuff. My bottle was 11%.

Dec 22, 2006 A nice copper amber pour with a sticky lacing. An aroma of raisins, malt and light alochol. A flavor of rich sweet maltiness, fruit, and light alochol. A nice lite bitter that really sets this beer off. A beer from a style that I really like a beer that I really like.

Aug 3, 2006 via trade with jasonmech77 - Pours a hazy amber color with a small off white head that fades to a film. Aroma is floral hops and fruity. Flavor is mainly a sweet fruit flavor. Nice hop bitterness to balance it out. Kind of a thick mouth feel. Very little alcohol warming. Very nice. Thanks Jason

Jan 26, 2008 12oz bottle from BevMo Carmel Mountain. Citrus hoppy aroma with banana bread and some malty fruitiness. Pours a dark transparent amber with a big off-white head with excellent retention. Very nice lacing. Malty up front with caramel, fruit, and light banana bread. Citrus hops in the finish, but not as much as I anticipated considering it only a few months old. Alcohol covered up very well, a touch of burn is really only noticeable if you’re looking for it. More malt and more fruit compared to some hopped up American barley wines (not that I have a problem with hopped up barley wines). Very nice.

Nov 28, 2003 Light brown color with a orange/red hue.Small head that faded quickly but left a light amount of lace behind.Fruity,malty aroma with a nice spice tone to it and nicely sweet,with a nice hop presence.The alcohol manages to stay well hidden in the aroma.Heavy syrupy feel up front that is very sweet and fruity with a nice mild malt side and decent hop presence.The after taste is fruity and hoppy with a nice alcohol burn going down.I can see why it's so highly rated,it's a very well done brew and tasty as hell.The syrupy feel isn't much to my liking but the flavors are outstanding. wich makes up for my lack of interest in the feel.Thanks to Wawood for another fine brew.
