Sep 13, 2008 (Bottled) Slightly hazy red-amber with a small head. Strongly caramel-grainy-sweet-malty aroma with some alcohol. Intensely grainy, pretty burning-alcoholic, strongly hoppy flavor with dried fruitiness and maple syrup. Quite full body with sticky sweetness and massive alcohol burn. A big beer, sure, but seriously: who wants to drink even a small bottle of this? To be shared and sampled once in a lifetime, but nothing more.

Sep 11, 2008 Bottle from Crown #15 in Fishers, IN. Pours a clear reddish-brown with only a tiny ring of beige bubbles that diminish to sa slick port-like appearance. The nose is a sweet, woody, vinous raisin hard candy, and light alcohol. Medium to FB & oily with a "warm" sweet finish. Like a sweet port, warm & candilike. One to share with a buddy, but it’s quite good.

Sep 10, 2008 Alright folks, this one was a doosie, and quite a pricey bar-price haha. It poured a very hazy, dark brown and smelled strongly of raison and perhaps some brown sugar. The taste was bomb of malt and raison. It was super strong but the alcohol didn’t seem too apparent while drinking, but I definitely felt that puppy. It was really drinkable for such a high ABV, but pretty expensive to have at the bar again--will just have to pick up from the store.
