Jun 17, 2004 Thick brown pour. Little or no head. Aroma is a nice mix of malts and alcohol. Flavor is the same as aroma a nice mix of malts and alcohol but with a fruity,winey aftertaste. Not bad just having one. Have more than that and give me the keys.

Jun 14, 2004 Thick look to the pour. Lot of alcohol in the nose, and oh yes I noticed some fruityness somewhere in there, too. Sweet and full alcohol in the taste. A thick beer, not hopped enough for me.

Jun 6, 2004 330 mL bottle, newer 13% version; fairly fresh: translucent gold. Starched white disparate head. Tiny bubbles rise through the body. Peach fuzz aroma with heavy alcohol, raisins and light Belgian yeast. Astringent alcohol on the palate with a thick malt presence. A bit of harsh, peppery spice in the finish. Overall the alcohol makes this one fairly hard to drink.

May 31, 2004 Tasted the 15% version. Amber in color with a small head. Alcohol, alcohol, and alcohol - dominates smell and taste with some fruitiness.

May 26, 2004 Updated: May 27, 2005Yuck. Poured a dark gold. You can definitely smell the alcohol, which is the only characteristic of note. Decent head that quickly disappears. As for flavor, there’s very little outside of the overwhelmingly alcoholic graininess with a sweet finish. Warm alcohol sting on the tongue, not unlike hard liquor. Not a pleasant brew at all.

May 6, 2004 (Best by 3/28/05) Clear amber body with medium, off-white head. Aroma is sweet, alcohol, grainy, banana. Taste is very sweet, grape, banana, finishing treacly alcohol. Full body. Definitely a sipping beer, and despite my initial reservations, my palate adjusted to the sweetness and I even came to somewhat enjoy it. Still, if a beer has to be high alcohol, I prefer it to not taste so high in alcohol.

Apr 24, 2004 Dark gold to light amber in color. Very alcoholic in both aroma, flavor and finish.This should be experienced. Glad I tried this (was a gift)but probably wouldn't try again soon.

Apr 10, 2004 This is great half a bottle and I am pleasently buzzed. It does have wine qualities but it is a little more like beer then some of the others I have tried. Great oily taste with a friuty vibe. Nice scent and color a winner. Novices beware!
