Jul 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown/amber with a small light tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, fruits, yeast, and peanut butter. Flavor strongly of nuts, with some roasted malt, dark fruits, alcohol. I had this on tap awhile ago and really enjoyed this, but having it now, out of a bottle, it was uninspiring. Just ok for me.

Jul 14, 2008 4-Pack that recently showed up, I’ve liked what I’ve had from Allagash so far so I didn’t need any convincing to give this a try. Dark, fruity malt aroma with an earthy/grainy quality partnered with mild spices. Deep amber pour with a 1/4" foamy head and great lacing. Hearty with a complex finish that leaves this beer clean and drinkable. Solid flavors of figs, raisins, and musty yeast. Some toasted malt and toffee was also noticed along with a bit of coffee and licorice. Not overly complex for it’s style, a solid offering.

Jul 6, 2008 Bottle Pours out a hazy mahogany topped with a nice sand head. Aroma of yeast, some spice and a little sweetness. Tast the yeast along with some clove and a few other spices. Not bad
badbeer (432), Iowa, USA
Jul 5, 2008 Poured a muddy dark brown color with a white-ish head with good retention. Smell was spicey with a bit of clove, seemed different. Light taste of brown sugar and spice, and a little clove, just seemed bland. Light bodied, high carbonation. Really light and dry on the tongue, I was looking forward to trying this, just a little let down. I may try it again sometime to see if I was missing something, but I really didn’t care for this.
