KlextonGaze (60) - Franklinville, New Jersey, USA - FEB 27, 2012
12er to pint....burnished amber with ample khaki top slowly rewarding senses with caramelized malts. As hops intensifies in the mouth pick up subtle fruit notes most notably raisin with underlying toffee/cocoa reemerging. All coming together quite delightfully as it finishes with savory bite. Very nice ale.

12 oz bottle poured into glass; why the heck did it take me so long to try this? GREAT brown; aroma is of malts, some roasted ness and hint of toffee. dark brown pour. Flavor is similar to aroma with some well balanced hops - great beer

johnluvsbeer (120) - Arizona, USA - FEB 25, 2012
Dark mahogany color with ruby highlights and an off white head from a brown twelve ounce bottle. Aroma is a cocoa/toffee and coffee smell. Taste also reflects the same. Aftertaste is on the bitter side, but not too extreme.

Det blir nästan inte bättre än så här. Ett generöst skum, ovanpå en mörk härlig öl. Doftar av ingefära, citrus och kaffe. Långvarig smak av mörk choklad, kaffe, citrus och så många andra smaker att orden inte räcker till. Detta är nog den bästa öl jag någonsin smakat, och det enda som grämer mig är att jag bara köpte denna enda flaska på min resa till Florida. Jag sparar 10:orna i smak och arom till något som kanske mest är en utopi.

hoppyho (56) - Los Angeles, California, USA - FEB 21, 2012
Pours a deep brown with a slight reddish hue. A creamy off-white head that laced the glass well, signifying the ample hop content. Rich caramel and hazelnut flavor notes underlying a smooth malty profile. Tasted sweet with a chewy mouthfeel that transforms into a tangy, nutty hoppiness at the finish.

bobaidan (446) - Southington, Connecticut, USA - FEB 19, 2012
Pours dark chocolate brown with a medium tan head. Asia is coffee, juniper berry and a hint of alcohol. Flavor is dark roasted malt with a nice hop bite.

Fantastically rich flavor with dense, thick head. Roasted aromas, chocolate-caramel taste, and smoo-ooo-ooth!
