Pours a dark caramel brown with a big foamy light tan head. Smells of sweet malts, dark fruits, berries, figs, and a little wood. The flavor is much of the same with a noticeable bite to it. Very nice carbonation for an old ale. Very malty, but not overly sweet which was nice. The bite was a little bitter in the finish and lingering aftertaste. Pretty smooth on the palate, with a subtle tingle going down. Pretty nice.

Pours a nice copper brown, with a perfect head. Taste is above average for a tripel. Roasted toffee flavors, and is very smooth. Thumbs up!

Brown in color with a beige colored head. Smell is malty, caramel, fruits, and molasses. Taste is much the same as the smell with some hop bitterness. Nice feel of the alcohol. Pretty decent.

Pours a dark, clear brown with a persistent tan head and good lacing. Nose of dark fruit and nuts with some floral notes. Taste has lots of complexity with notes of raisins, pear, nuts, malt, and spices. Alcohol noticeably comes through in the taste as well. Finish is hoppy, with some lingering alcohol.

This is the fourth beer (a 2006 vintage) in our June 11th Old Ale Blind Tasting. It finished in 6th place.

Pours dark brown with quarter inch firm dark tan head and some sheet lacing. It has a mild aroma with light amounts of fruity esters, black licorice, earthiness and faint sweet malty caramelization. The taste starts smooth and silky yet a bit thin feeling. I get dark fruity raisins, cherry hard candy and something nearing pepper. It also gets sweet and rich with maltiness as midway approaches and some hoppy bitterness joins in and build to the finish. Kind of earthy and mildly musty. The after taste is hops, a bit of pepper and wet cement like earthiness.

Bottle courtesy Ibrew2or3. Pours dark brown with a large tan head that lasts leaving good lacing. Aroma of caramel, slight roast, and dark fruit. Taste is the same as aroma with some spicy yeasty peppery goodness. Medium mouthfeel with a moderate amount of bitterness and well hidden alcohol. Good.
