Rated Sept. 2006. Bottle 067943. Clear brown color except for all the chunks of floating sediment hanging around this elixir. Tan head that fizzled to nothing in a couple of minutes. Sweet sugary smell with vanilla, brown sugar, cherries, dates and wheat. Very complex aroma. First sip, WOW. Excellent flavor. The wheat, dark fruit, brown sugar and spices make a great combination of flavors. At the end of the bottle some alcohol became noticeable as a warmth crept into the drinking experience, sort of as a reminder of the ABV.

Nose: Bubblegum, clove, banana. Appearance: dark brown body carmel color and head with short retention leaves the skim coat not much lace. Mouth: extremely fizzy of the tongue. Rather thin with a long finish. Flavor: starts pretty sweet with a little bit of bubble gum, candied fruits, toasted malts creep in, some raisin, there's some pepper in the finish the alcohol is warming and the finish is extremely long.

Pours a large foamy off-white head and has a murky brown appearance. Weak lacing. Has aromas of raisins, wheats and malts. Flavours are mostly dark dry type fruits (raisins, plums). Fairly strong and pronounced alcohol taste, mainly in the finish. Something like oak notes in the mix, maybe even rum, or what seems like it. Also a little bit yeasty. Quite a bit of sediments are visible. Bottle qty is quite sufficient for me in one sitting (12% abv).

Pours an extremely cloudy dark brown with a one finger head that goes down fairly quickly. very clouded but I can see a lot of carbonation. Aroma is very spicy with hins of bananna, cloves and bread dough. Taste is something right out of some trappiste monastary. Hints of heavy yeast, breads, and spices. At the end it is very sticky and chewy. Very, very good.

Dark ruby with small off-white foam head. Aroma is sweet caramel. Taste is bittersweet with the caranel sweet on top. But in both aroma and taste is a charcoal present. Short lasting aftertaste. (Velp 201301)

Thanks Jeff!!!!! Ruby brown with a small skiff floating on top what is pretty good for the 12%. Sweet yet intensely sour apple candy, oak, sock like funk. What do the malts smell like..... I can't but my finger on it. Sweet apple with a nice alcohol warming finish. Caramel, candy sugar, perfume, apples, wood, more stuff with stuff that taste like stuff. Good stuff!

Pours a hazed russet brown with a fleeting cream colored head. The aroma is of caramelized cherry caramel aroma, plums, molasses, leather, cinnamon, allspice, prunes, very complex aroma of malts. The taste is of sweet carmalized brown sugar and molasses. Cherries, plums, red Bartlet pears, caramelized plantains, hints of cinnamon and all spice, some minor bitterness on the edges. The mouthfeel is chewy but smooth feel, light side of full bodied, low but spritzy carbonation.

Pours syrupy from the tap. Smells of plums and licorice. Mouthfeel is velvety. Taste is of more licorice. This is kicking me arse. Finish is too much. Overwhelming to say the least!

This was quite an experience. A style to try for sure and a perfect example if you happen to find it. Nice amber/orange color with a very light tan head. Sweet and spicy nose that the flavor matches. It has a wine like quality in the flavor, mouthfeel and aftertaste and a warm finish. Very very good.
