Dec 1, 2007 1 y/o bottle. Bottle. Boozy, hot, lactic, lightly fruity, sage. Very fizzy pour, like coke. Slightly chewy, caramel, a bit better than the aroma, good breadiness. Not the best at all.

Nov 25, 2007 From 750 mL bottle : Pours a dark hazy rusty color wtih a finger of beautiful foamy, creamy head, and lots of carbonation. Nose of big sweet fruits, and a underlining aroma of malts. Taste is of the same sweet fruits from the aroma, with a bit at the end, and some alcohol notes. Feels fresh and alive in the mouth, with a creamy beginning. Medium to thick body, very nice body for a abt/quad. Really good.

Nov 25, 2007 750 ml bottle. Poured a cloudy brown orange color. Head was one finger high and dissipated relatively quickly. Aroma was of pear, brown sugar, and alcohol. Slightly sweet up front with a hint of acidity in the middle that lingers briefly. The flavor was fruit dominated, tasting predominantly of pear, raisin, and white wine. There was also some clove, a dash of white pepper, and the slightest hint of vinegar. Pretty good Quad.

Nov 18, 2007 very good beer. Nice nice surprise that this beer was still ’left’ after the hoards of people at the beer fest @ Split Rock. Poor show but a good beer.

Nov 16, 2007 750 mll bottle. Enticing array of flavors and a velvet texture make for an interesting and ejoyable beer that would have been better if it weren’t so sweet. Appealing dark brown pour with a wispy, off-white head. The aroma was musty and malty sweet with notes of molasses, ripe plumbs, peach, cobwebs and clove. The flavor is heavily sweet, lightly bitter and lightly acidic. Medium to full body and a smooth texture. Long finish.

Nov 16, 2007 Pours light brown with a decent head. Lots of sweet malt with raisins, dark fruit ,caramel, alcohol is noticable. Solid, but can’t drink a lot. Seemed more like a barleywine.

Nov 16, 2007 Pours light brown with a thin tan head. Lots of sweet malt with raisins, dark fruit,caremel, brown sugar and an alchohol bite. Lots of complexity. A great after dinner "snack" but only in small portions.

Nov 10, 2007 750ml bottle: Deep cherry pour with a lacey tan top. The aroma is fantastic - cherry, plum and cocoa, with roasted nuts and roasted barley in the background. The depth is great and continues in the body. More sweet cherry and chocolate, in a creamy body. Finishes a bit hot, but full, with lingering bitter chocolate notes. Good stuff.
