pours a light golden brown with a two finger head and tons of small bubbles in the glass. a very active beer, head is light and fluffy, smells of mild chocolate, plum, and sweetness. taste is in line for the style, chocolate, spices, malts, cherry. has a fairly good body and good carbination through the whole beer.

On tap. Mahogny with a rich creamy beige head. Sweet caramel nose with a complex spices and yeast. Sweet, lightly roasted caramel taste. Relatively fluffy and light-bodied. Enjoyable.

Bomber, shared with ArcaneApollo. Pours a deep reddish-brown with a lacy white head. Aroma is of spices and slight chocolate and candy sugar. Taste is spicy with a bit of a chocolate aftertaste. Very solid brown ale, though not the best I’ve had.

The flavors seem almost standard with these Belgium ingredients. Caramel, nuttiness, rich malts and mild floral hops. Quite tasty

The aroma has prunes, candy, and yeast. The appearance is dark brown with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is a little thin. This is a nice beer.

The flavors here are light.. have they been subdued in the 3 years since I’ve had this - or have i been drinking too many "imperials" lately? A slightly chewy beer with some nice flavor notes.

(draft @ The Old Toad - Rochester, NY) Chestnut brown color with a thick and lasting tan head. Aroma is roasty and sweet with some dark fruits, chocolate, and a little bit of sour. Flavor is dark and fruity with some chocolate. caramel, and roasted malts with a slight bitterness at the end of it.
