Nov 23, 2000 Updated: Dec 8, 2003Aroma: intense - massive malt, touch of soy; palate: sweet, flavours of Tibetan butter tea, sweet milk
chocolate, and just plain silky sweet malt. And most importantly in the superheavyweight division, it actually tastes like beer. What a concept. This release scored a 4.7 overall rating.
2003 release: Hotter, stiffer, more oily than the 2001. The fatness of malt just isn't there, and complexity is lacking. Still tasty, but to me a step down even from 2002 let alone 2001. Get that original one if you're seeking WWS.

Feb 16, 2008 Vintage 2001 (with my deepest disappointment for buying it at New Beers Distributors as Vintage 2002); 5+ years old
Black color; the head disappears quickly. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, glue, in equal proportion; young wood; dark chocolate with high percentage cocoa. Strong mouthfeel, it flows to the sides of the mouth like a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfluid strong malt flavor, caramel, some molasses; it ends with a hint of rhubarb candies. It’s very sweet and the roasted malt doesn’t overwhelm the other flavors, extremely good!

Jan 17, 2008 [Courtesy of yespr, session @ yespr] Black with tiny brown head. Slightly smoked and sweet aroma with roasted malt, chocolate and coffee. Flavor is very sweet with vinous, overripe fruit, roasted malt, chocolate, coffee and smoky notes. Alcohol is very well hidden.

Feb 6, 2002 Updated: Aug 15, 2007(8/15/07, 12oz bottle, 2003 release) After five-and-a-half years, it’s finally time to re-rate the first beer I rated on the site. Given how limited my description was for such an unusual beer, it’s actually well past time. Small brown head atop brown-black body. Aroma is moderately sweet, roast, coffee, chocolate, caramel, some burnt, vinous, light molasses, raisin, surprisingly light alcohol. Taste is sweet, molasses, vinous/raisin, caramel, some chocolate, roast/coffee, light anise. Some alcohol burn. Full body, sticky with low carbonation. As I observed back in 2002, "Sure there’s an alcohol flavor, but nothing like what you’d expect with this much alcohol."

Sep 22, 2007 Bottle from HogTownHarry drunk at Chris_o’s HogTownHarry meet up. Black with brown edges, little beige head. A lot of hot alcohol on aroma. Some impy stout. Not sure I can rate this. Thick and heavy. Juest too sweet/alcoholic. Lots of malt, too sweet.
