Jan 26, 2009 12oz bottle acquired in trade with jake65 (thanks!). Poured a medium and cloudy brownish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of caramel, toasted malts, and some citrus. Tastes of caramel, toasted malts, a trace of dark fruitiness, and toffee. Body a tad on the thinner side. Lacing left on the glass.

Dec 22, 2008 Richy, full, woody brow-amber with frothy-browned cream head. Sweet hops greet the nose and an inkling of holiday spices, perhaps allspice and cinnamon. Mouthfeel is mildly hoppy and spicy, and again lightly spiced and with the noted presence of caramel malts. Rather thin body. Some cardboard hop finish on back-end. Dissapointingly under-bodied for an ESA. Had they boiled off more wort and fermented a higher OG brew, this would have the chance to be stellar stuff.

Dec 6, 2008 208 Bottle - Pours a dk brown with a small off white head...aroma is rich with honey malt but something is missing...flavour is horrendous, thin on the front and bitter on the end with very little character in between, finishes with a bit of roasted pine...sory to say this was a drain pour for me...

Aug 27, 2008 This black ale poured with a nice beige head and a mellow malt aroma. There is a hearty caramel malt flavor with lots of carbonation. Sticks to the palate.

Aug 18, 2008 Bottle from John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR. Beautiful mahogany color with a multi-finger beige/tan head. Aroma of resin backed by citrus. Near full bodied with vigorous, near creamy carbonation. Flavor is quite resiny, backed by heavy caramel, finishing balanced, evergreeny, and mouthsmacking. Just excellent. Makes me think of gin.
