Feb 18, 2009 low aroma - just a hint of appetising toffee and spice. Toffee and caramel flavours, with a hint of vanilla, cardamom and ginger nuts. Just enough bitterness. A little thin on the palate.

Feb 14, 2009 18 oz can at Dick’s in Excalibur, in Las Vegas. Very nice looking, amber, thick head with the thickest largest lacing I’ve seen. Strong palate of sugar daddy. While drinking this, the bartender said it was water show time, and to classical music mocked the Bellagio by creating a water show with his mixer. He was soaked and got us a bit wet. Nice beer and nice memory.

Feb 14, 2009 Dark amber with a thick off-white head. Good lacing. Unique aroma of roasted, maybe burnt, malt and also some nuttiness. Flavor is robust, with toasted malt offset with light hop bitterness. Palate is complex, with decent carbonation in the finish and a strong roasted malt aftertaste. This is an excellent beer that exceeded my expectations.

Feb 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours a medium amber with a half finger beige head and decent lacing. The nose is caramel, dark fruit and smoky malt. The taste is sweet caramel malt, toasted nuts and a slight sour finish. Medium, fairly flat body. Meh.

Feb 11, 2009 On tap this one is excellent. Nice frothy Guinness like head. From the bottle not nearly as satisfying.

Jan 28, 2009 Bottle. Pours a nice color. Lasting thin lacing. Big malty flavor and finish. A bit metallic and what I find to be a not too flattering roasted, yeasty palate.
