One of the best beers I’ve ever had. Dark brown with a medium tan head. No bitterness, aroma of caramel. Worth the high price!

Nice brown color. Smooth malty flavor with a hint of caramel. Doesn’t have the bite you would expect from such a high alcohol content.

Poured a malty brown colored body with a small off-white head. Smell is unfermented malts and dried fruit. Hop scent is of orange blossoms. Taste is clean and malty with unfermented sugars. Sour hops are rosie and orange flavored on the palate. As I finish my glass I’m getting a hint of cherry wood like it was barrel aged in cherry. An excellent beer. Well made. Clean and smooth.

Brown in color with a good sized beige head. Aroma is of sweet malts, fig, and raisins. Taste is of yeast and malts, maple and nuts.

Pours dark dark amber, slightly cloudy. Giant, fluffy tan head. An amazingly drinkable beer, 8.5% alcohol hardly shows through. What you get are sweet malts, hops, spice and maple syrup. Clean (almost watery) on the palate, but still quite complex.

Great think white head and rich dark body. The flavor was very good but honestly it was over hyped (probably bad intel). Very good though.

Amber color, substantial off-white head. Malty and yeasty taste with some brown sugar and almost a medicinal quality. Decent but not great. I’ll take Delirium Tremens over this any day. Malty, fruity aroma far exceeds the flavor.

From the bottle, pours a very dark red with a nice foamy tan head. Malty fruity aroma with notes of apricot and light malts. Taste is lightly watery, malty, with alcohol and brown sugar, raisins, and with a bitter bite in the end. Finish is smooth, though, and is light enough to drink. Pretty good.
