Pours a nice hazy amber/copper with a moderate tan head. Aroma is rich and creamy, with lots of malt, not a ton else going on except for some noticeable alcohol. Flavor is more richness and caramel with some spice on the back-end. This is pretty tasty but I’d like some more dimension to it.

May 31, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours dark amber with a tan thin head. Aroma is almost undetectable. Flavor is sweet caramel, citrus, with some roastiness and mild spiceness. It tried to have a creamy mouthfeel, but felt a bit short on the thin side. Besides having no aroma, this turned out to be a good winter warmer.

May 3, 2008 Bottle, special procurement. Red with a thin white head. Cherries in the nose. Nice balance with slight sweetness rounded by a peppery aftertaste. Not bad.

Apr 27, 2008 Updated: May 3, 2008Dark murky pour with decent head and lacing. Aroma is dirt with berry like fruit squeezed in. The mouthfeel is of high carbonation which is noticeable before any flavors. The flavors are predominantly dried dark fruits with some earthy dirt tones and a very faint fruitiness. All of this is very mild, in an English sort of way. I thought this was well done without going overboard on spices or fruit. Thanks to MUSHROOMCLOUD from BA for the trade!
