Sep 4, 2008 Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in McKinney, TX.
Pours a nice looking deep brown with ruby hue’s, minimal off-white head. Aroma has slight chocolate, slight dark fruit, a nice small hoppy spice. Flavor has a nice maltiness, a little chocolate, a little vanilla, some spicy hop, hints of alcohol. Palate is medium mouthfeel, high carbonation. Overall, it is incredibly balanced but yet with some complexity, easy to drink as well.....also, really does have a nice warming sensation.....I enjoyed this.....

Aug 31, 2008 Dark amber pour with a small foamy off-white head. Sweet caramel malt, light chocolate, roasted grain and a touch of hops in the aroma. Flavor is similar, sweet toffee, though much lighter than expected from the color. Not bad, but not my style.

Aug 7, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. A deep red beer with a lazing light tan head. The aroma is sweet and very spicy combined with medium notes of nuts and alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of fruit and vanilla, leading to a dry bitter and nutty finish.

Mar 27, 2008 Found this one in back of fridge. Barley and coffee aroma on the nose. Mahagany body with off white head. Flavor has more coffee and grains noticable. Some dry coco but no chocolate in mine. Maybe old but still decent brew.
