Jul 18, 2009 Orange-amber pour with a lot of sediment and good head with great retention—lots of lacing. Smell is banana, malts, and some hops. Taste is malty and salty with a little hop kick and some alcohol. Sour apple and some other fruits are evident—finish is a little weak, but has some good bitterness. The more I drink it the more I like it.

Jul 15, 2009 Bottle. Dark brown pour, tons of carbonation and sediment (despite a careful pour). Aroma of malts, sour apple and hops. Flavor was plenty of malts, plum, brown sugar, pepper and cinnamon? Very good beer, but not worth $9/bottle asking price (in my opinion).

Jul 12, 2009 Probably the saltiest beer I have ever had, this tasted like seafood and beer, like someone snuck clamato in my glass of good times. steer clear. bottle at Food Stores, Coral Gables.

Jul 9, 2009 Bottle from Total Wine (Tampa, FL). Pours a very slightly hazy dark amber brown with one finger off-white head that settles quickly. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of ripe dark fruit, caramel, light spice, brown sugar, light cooked veggies, and hints of grass, wheat and yeast. Flavor is sweet and malty with notes of caramel, ripe dark fruit, toffee, wheat, yeast, and hints of chocolate and molasses. Generally medium body with a malty finish. A respectable ale, but not a frequent drinker for me.

valpoaj (362), Valparaiso, Indiana, USA
Jul 3, 2009 Batch 2 aged approximately a year in the cellar. Pours murky brown with a thick off-white head that leaves substantial lacing. Aroma is sweet and inviting...loads of caramel malt, dark fruit, yeast, and spice (cinnamon?) Flavor is heavy and full of dark fruit (raisin), loads of sweet, sugary caramel malts, and yeast, along with that hint of spice in the background (now I feel like I’m picking up cinnamon and nutmeg, but only at times). Finishes strangely bitter and has a hoppy feel to the close...dunno if I like this or not. Palate is heavy, but not particularly oily, and has a good level of carbonation. Good brew, if not fantastic in any category.
Meatmallet (120), Salem, Illinois, USA
Jun 28, 2009 Pours an apricot color with a thick beige head. Smell is sweet and a little spicy on the nose. I get white grape, brown sugar, raisins, and plums. Has a light tartness to it. Nothing overpowering or amazing about it though.Has a very peppery taste to start which is followed by the sweetness of the raisins and plums. I also can taste a bit of citrus like mandarin oranges.Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
