Pours a deep red color with amber hues. A small light tan head that dissolves into a rim after a minute. The aroma is a sweet toffee with some plum and a bit of a bitter edge. The flavor is not quite as sweet as the aroma, though there still is a good bit there. Rich malty caramel with a yeasty spice and a decently dry bitter finish. This is a pretty thick beer, despite not having a whole lot of visible carbonation. The finish leaves a bit of stale beer flavor on the palate, but not in a bad way. Pretty tasty.

Aug 11, 2008 I liked this beer. Pours a deep reddish brown with a thin off white head. Almost no hops, but a nice smooth, sweet maltiness.
easy drinking, goes down smooth.

Aug 1, 2008 Bottled Feb 08. Poured a reddish brown with a thin off-white head that disappeared in seconds. Overall a weak aroma but found some sweet malts and corn. A very subdue flavor also. Molasses was the only thing I could pick out. Light body, watery, and a slight sour ending. Pass.

Jul 31, 2008 Bottle. Pours amber, thin off white head. Aroma is malty and faint. Flavor is malty with some hops and metal. Definitely a forgettable beer, if not too sweet.

Jul 27, 2008 Updated: Aug 14, 2008Big disappointment. It’s aroma said sweet and malt. It’s appearance was a dark brown color, with a thin head. It’s flavor was poorly balanced, with too much sweet and not enough malt body balance. I found it to be too sweet without reason. I did not enjoy, and actually handed my bartender the bottle to do a drain pour.
