Bottle from South Bay Drugs: Creates a soft mahogany filtered with shades of orange color and is topped by a thick sticky head. Aroma is very floral with hops, caramelized malt and sweet bread such as donuts or French toast. There is same to be said about the flavors with its plump and chewy malt and sweetened caramel backbone. There are also minor notes of floral yet bitter hops that give a much fuller body and actually allow life in what could have been a malty mess. Certainly a hearty drink and with a twenty-two ounce bottle enough ABV to do the trick, I still find this beer to be average.

The more I sample Old Ales, the more I enjoy them. This was no exception. Mainly malty aroma with hints of hops. Flavor is sweet...caramel and toffee, with a definite alcohol presence.

Bottle. Pours red orange with a creamy beige head. The aroma is toasty with some fruity sweetness. The flavor has toasted/roasted grain, and sweeter notes of chocolate and molasses. Pretty good.

22 oz. bottle. Pours a deep copper color with a small but creamy off white head. The aroma is heavily malty, toasted, caramel, some mild fruit, vanilla, and alcohol. The flavor is again dominated by the malts. Toasted caramel, molasses, vanilla, dark fruits, a touch of herbal hop bitterness in the finish, and a significant alcohol burn going down. This is truly a winter warmer. Medium-full bodied. This bottle had at least one year on it when consumed.

Dark amber color, a little light for the style, with a creamy beige head. Nice lacing. Aromas of alcohol, fruity esters, alcohol, caramel, and fusel alcohol. Flavor is malty with a thinnish mouthfeel. Solid bitterness. Again, lots of booze. Dark and red fruits and a burnt character. High carbonation, too much alcohol, not very drinkable, however it doesn’t have a bunch of absurd off-flavors like most organic beers. Not recommended.

Another organic bomb. Pours a murky reddish-brown, with no head. Reminiscent of rusty water. Ethyl alcohol, caramel, and the smell of burnt sugar. Viscous, soilid mouthfeel has me looking up, maybe the taste will redeem this one. Nope. Raisins, prunes, and malt doused in alcohol and molasses. This is like one of those nightmarish Christmas homemade candies plums. Boooo.

Pours a mostly translucent deep copper with a medium creamy/bubbly off white head that laced. Aroma of dark fruits, molasses, caramel, tobacco and brown sugar. Flavor of toasted malt, brown sugar, light citrus notes, moderate hop bitterness, some hop flavor, caramel and dark fruits.
