| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 5, 2007 The neat lookng bottle was $7.68 at my local North Coast Coop in Eureka. It poured a garnet red color wtih floating chunks I suppose must be yeast. Head is tan with big fat and long lasting bubbles. Lacing was moderate. Nose was complex and of malts, fruits, coffee, chocolate, and a little hops. Mourthfeel was excellent with smoothness and the alcohol is hidden well. Flavors are excellent and mirror the aromas. Finish good with a hint of bitterness. A simple delightful brew to drink and well worth the price. jredmond (1029), New Jersey, USA

However, this one was sweeter, still easy to drink despite the high alc content. Thanks Steve (Chef201atc) Beltramelli (471), Campinas, Brazil
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Feb 26, 2007 Delight, really! Dark-red coloration. It gives pra to perceive a light suspension. Dense, consistent and very persistent cream. In the nose, evident notes of chocolate, coffee and toasted malt. In the palate, the party starts of truth. Made velvety and creamy texture. Red fruits, chocolate and toasting. Perfect carbonation, almost imperceptible alcohol and incredible aftertaste. Wonderful beer.............................................. Que delícia, meu povo!
Coloração escuro-avermelhada linda. Dá pra perceber uma leve suspensão, que não incomoda nem um pouco.
Creme muito denso, consistente e persistente. No olfato, evidentes notas de chocolate, café e malte torrado.
No paladar, a festa começa de verdade. Textura aveludada e cremosa. Dá pra perceber frutas vermelhas, chocolate e torrefação. Carbonatação perfeita, álcool quase imperceptível e bem colocado.
Retrogosto incrível. Uma cerveja pra apreciadores.
