Removing the foil and cap you can immediately smell the cherry undertone mixing with the spices. Pouring it gives you a rich silky dark amber with a small tan head that dissipates quickly. When drinking the different sugars and spices come to the front with a slight barley flavor hidden below with little carbonation to alter the texture of silk.

UPDATED: FEB 15, 2007 When I poured this big bad boy, I was overwhelmed how much like character it has in it.
A beautiful Copper with an off-white head. Taste of Candy sugar, honey, cloves. Plus its strong as Hell!!
I don’t think I can finish it because I’ll asleep before I do
Another Winner from Avery

In my opinion this brew is quite underrated. Ah whatever, to each their own I suppose. Anyways this brew pours a brilliant copper hue. This brew is actually quite complex and although it weighs in at a hefty 10% abv, the alcohol is masked decently (albiet still present). This has a good candi-sugar and maple syrup flavor. IMO very good!

650 mL brown bottle purchased from Armanetti’s, Mundelein, NY. ABV 10%. Clear red amber Belgium-style ale having a small diminishing white head with fair lacing. No discernable carbonation. Intoxicating aroma of fruity esters (cherry?), spice, toffee, and alcohol. Full bodied ale that starts with initial sharpness and mouth exploding flavor of slight sweet malt, raisins, toffee, and spices. Finishes dry with light bitterness. Notable alcoholic warmth. A deeply satisfying ale.
