Dec 20, 2004 Surprisingly hoppy aroma is the first thing to strike you after this dark brown pour is unleashed. A substantial head lingers atop the malted goodness. The flavor is sour and spicy, with a touch of pineapple. The hops return in the finish - to round out a nice ride.

Dec 9, 2005 Bottle. Spices and raisins on the nose. Pours a dark amber with a light head. Smooth, thick, and as it slowly coats your taste buds. Coffee notes but not from Starbucks, more of a lighter roast. Great beer to sip by the fire.

Jul 9, 2006 12 oz bottle. Very nice deep brown pour with a fluffy tan head. Aromas were very sweet dark fruit. Raisin, molasses, spice. The flavor was very different. Very Dry. Still some dark fruit, but way drier than I had expected.. Not bad, but I expected more i guess.

Mar 19, 2007 Bottle. Poured a dark brown with a creamy off-white head that leaves light lacing. The aroma has fruits, spices (clove & nutmeg), and a light hint of alcohol. The flavor found dark fruits, malts, and spices. Medium to full body. Enjoyable.
