Feb 3, 2008 July 2006 - Beer poured really dark and huge head which left as quickly as it came. Deep chocolate and cherry flavor with some nut. Somewhat viney tasting and sweet caramel with sour finish...not crazy about this beer for some reason.

Jan 29, 2008 Sampled at Anchor, San Fran - June 2007. Clear dark brown (mahogany up to light) with a thick beige head. Raisins, carmelized sugars in the nose. Flavor of dark fruits, burnt raisin, dark caramel, toffee, a hint of roast, noble hops, a light alcohol kick and some lingering bitterness. Medium bodied with lively carbonation.

Jan 29, 2008 Dark color with pleasing carbonation and a rocky mocha head. Aroma of caramel with notes of cardboard. Started off with a very chilled sample, yet lovely carmel flavorings still leaked out. Crisp caramel throughout the session with a burnt finish and balanced sweetness. One of the better Anchor brews.

Jan 28, 2008 Nice oily brown pour like molasses with a foamy/creamy light brown head. Roasted malt aroma with some sweet sugary bourbon and a touch of caramel. The taste is smoked caramel and milk chocolate with some cocoa as well.
Guerde (695), Welcome, Minnesota, USA
Jan 26, 2008 (bottle) Pours dark brown with a tan head that settles quickly. Aroma is nice and features toasted nut, cocoa, chocolate, and tart berry (can’t tell which one though). Taste turns immediately to dark chocolate, then a slight cola flavor. This flavor then gives way to the tart berry I picked up in the aroma, and yields to a nice light roast/hop bitter finish. Medium mouthfeel. This is a pretty good sessionable beer, and has a decent amount of complexity.
