May 1, 2007 Not sure what year this one is. 12oz. bottle served in a 6oz. snifter. Pours a dark hazy amber with a decent but quickly fading head. Aroma is sort of like cough syrup. Boozy prune raison. Flavor is quite strong but also pretty mellow. Super sweet (also like cough syrup). Instant belly warmer. Would be mighty tasty during a bitter cold winter night.

Apr 29, 2007 12 Ounce bottle from shigadeyo! Nose of brown sugar, caramel, a little woodiness, and sho nuff raisins! Very barleywine like! Slightly hazy, rusty brown with a small straw colored head; Flavor very raisiny and fairly sweet, with caramel, only a small hint of the alcohol in the finish. Nicely bodied. This is one I need to get more bottles of to age! But is it really 18.5%? I don’t pick up much alcohol!

Apr 27, 2007 This was an odd one for me. I felt the beer was a bit too sweet for my liking, the aroma was decent and the head and color were nice. I liked the Raison D’etre better but that is just me!

Apr 24, 2007 Bottle. Nose is reminiscent of apple juice. Sweet with subtle hints of the raisins, and a touch of spice. Cloudy reddish gold with a thin and swirly white head. Sweet as hell, it wraps around the tongue and puts it in a chokehold. Somehow it works though, coming just short of cloying and actually leaving a pleasant impression. It’s thick enough to be chewed, which is absolutely necessary. Very mild hints of alcohol, amazingly balanced for the abv.
