750 ml bottle; wow, thanks Tom!! #100 marked on the bottle; pours dark brown and mostly flat with thin tan ring along the edges; aromas of brown sugar, yeasty spice and musky malts; drinks very, very sweet with orange peels and spice; tick, syrupy texture drinks with just a touch of alcohol; normally I’d say this was a little too sweet, but works really well here; damn good

750, corked and caged. Thanks, after4ever. Pours cloudy dark brown with an off-white ring of foam. Slightly funky earth and chocolate taste. Rather strange. Not bad, but strange.

Enjoyit (2721) - Vadum, DENMARK - SEP 29, 2009
Black of color with a small brown head. An aroma of liqurice, port, wine and spice. A flavor of liqurice, spice, dry in finsh but still oily.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - SEP 20, 2009
Cask. A hazy deep red beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of sweet malt and over ripe fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and acidic brettanomyces notes from the wood combined with notes of vanilla, leading to a dry woody and alcoholic finish. The alcohol leaves a slight burn in the mouth.

Samled at EBF 08. Dark brown with no head. Fruity with sweet & sour tones. Malt, fruit and sour. Full body with a bitter finish.

Liquid Sunshine VII Tasting – Kirkland, WA
Aroma: Big fruit alcohol induced strong ale aroma.
Appearance: Dark Brown in color, clear with a thin head.
Flavor: Nice fruit flavors and deep malt richness. Lots of oak flavors from the aging.
Palate: Dry Barrel Finish, with a Good Mouthfeel.
Overall: Big killer beer. This was aged well and brewed with the utmost affection for brewing.

Thanks after4ever! Very dense muddy brown. Hot jammy raisin and cherry cordial. Big and chewy, dark fruits, hint of a sour finish.

750, corked and caged. Thanks, TheWolf! Bottle #100. Pours a nearly opaque ebony/black. Bright caramel highlights. Dense creamy rocky bubbly tan head. Webby strings of lace. Huge sour smoky nose--intriguing and perfectly harmonious together. Creamy medium body. Smoky, sour mid-palate. Fruity. Long roasty finish. Awesome.
