Bomber. Bronze color, little head, no haze but a few good sized floaters. Lovely dark fruit scents. Hits the tongue with plum, malts, and only a bit of raisins. Finishes sweet, a little sticky, quite nice. Warms the body, while still being a good, refreshing spring beer. Good stuff.

May 24, 2008 2006 Bottle. Pours out a brown color without much of a head. Smell is sweet, spicy, and has some raisins in it. The taste is sweet, and really, like eating a raisin. Over carbonated, too sweet, no balance, pretty much a mess. It reminded me of Ommegang - but only in appearance and mouthfeel. Kind of like if unibroue was to brew Raison d’ Etre and add a turd to the mix. My least favorite beer of the weekend last week.

May 21, 2008 Bottle 2006. pours out a nice darker brown clor with a medium tan head. aroma was sweet with a bit a raisin. Flavor was the same, but had a somewhat strange finish. This is one of the better beers i have had from this brewer and I want so bad for them to have something better. My search continues
