13% abv version here as well. Wonderful toffee aromas... good head, very nice lacing. Pours light amber into the glass. Sweet, sweet, sweet... prune and cane to the tongue, with sweet malt notes and caramel/toffee settle in for afterthoughts. Subtle alcohol tones meld with an extremely smooth pull for such a high abv. The mouthfeel is quite warmingly smooth. For those who enjoy sweet malty brews, this is definitely for you. And I do like the style, trust me, but I wish it was a bit more complex. It seems a bit 2-dimensional for me.... alcohol and sugar. But if I ever want to get a quick "up and go", this is the brew I’ll seek. It does the job quite well....

Im sure this was the 13% vertion. Aroma is seriously alcoholic, however toffee malts and some plums seem to hide it reasonably well. Taste is similarly storng a sweet but drinkable to nearly a dangerous level.

Traduit par MrAlain... Merci!

Cette bière verse une couleur or foncée avec un collet blanchaille assé particulier, qui disparaît très vite. Le verser n’est pas plaisant de voir, car la levure tombe dans le verre comme du ciment dans une bétonnière et une substance sirupeux, comme le pulpe d’un jus d’orange, qui s’accroche. Le démon sur l’étiquette me fait pensé à mon ami <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=18266>RAYBOY01! (Ha, ha HA!) L’alcool est méchant et évident au début de l’arome, suivi par ce que j’ai noté, cerise et des légumes tournés, mais ce n’est pas assé pour couvrir l’odeur puissante d’éther. Le goût, supporté par le malte, est sucré pour commencé avec des notes de melon et l’alcool qui brûle la langue. Le sucre devient écoeurant comme du aspartame et cela me rappelle des bonbons fruités sans sucre. Il y a une petite sensation brûlante quant l’alcool est arrivé à ton estomac. C’est une bière intéressante et pour un taux de 13% alc./vol., elle est plus tôt douce, mais je ne dirais pas qu’elle est « La bière la plus unique au monde ».
