Apr 20, 2009 Bottle shared by Hophead22. Pours a dark brown with a thin brown film of a head. Aroma is nice chocolate and cinnamon, some dark fruits and booze. Flavor is roasty with very little sweetness. Some coffee and chocolate is there as well as spice. Decent full body with low carbonation.

Mar 24, 2009 Bottle. Got this one in a trade. I was presently surprised with this one. It was incredibly sweet. I have always been a little weary about spice beers, but this one didn’t disappoint.

Mar 21, 2009 About a 1 inch thich head of light brown bubbles. Very dense and creamy. Sweet rootbeer aroma with some dark fruit, chocolate and dark roasted malts. Minor bit of spice in there too. Color is a very dark brown. Very malty and roasty with some licorice, mild spice again, molasses and some ginger. Flavor is all over the place but still pretty good. Light alcohol presence that warms the stomach. Finishes malty and earthy with a lingering bit of spice. The cinnamon finally showed up. A decent experiment.

Mar 7, 2009 Bottle from Capone’s sampled over X-mas 2008. Pours very deep brown with 2-finger brown head. Nose is weizenbocky, with malt, banana, spice, nutmeg, molasses, cacao powder. Complex aroma. Tastes dark malty, spicy, with nutmeg, x-mas spices, hints of molasses, brown sugar, and mild rauchy notes. This one is all over the place, and evolves over time. The finish is fruity, with fig, blackberry, and more spices. Good, but I like to call this one the Tasmanian Devil of beers.

Jan 29, 2009 Dark brown with a spicy aroma of roots, cinnamon, and dirt. Flavor has a bit of chocolate, but mostly roots, dirt, and assorted spices. Not one of their better efforts.
