<i>Bottle from Lee’s Discount Liquor, Las Vegas</i><br />Dark mahogany color, big thick head. It has a good caramel and chocolate aroma, strong body, medium sweetness, chocolate flavor, caramel of course, correct bitterness, alcohol warmth at the end. Maybe a bit too strong, correctly brewed, but without emotions, monodimensional and boring after a few sips.

Dark brown pour with nice frothy brown head. Sweet malty nose. Flavor is rich with matl, a lot of brown sugar and a touch of fruit. Body is medium with good amount of alcohol that warms the soul.

Rust red appearance with a small tan head and nice lacing. Malty, yeasty aroma full of ripe fruit, caramel and some spice. Earthy, sweetish taste, vinous, fruity and malty, with a hint of butterscotch intruding. Medium-to-full bodied and little carbonation. Long lasting finish with an unobtrusive alcohol presence.
