Dec 2, 2009 Bottled Pours out in an evil lava-red hazy colour with a small creamy off-white head. Rich, rough, resinous and sappy aroma of pine-cones, caramel-sauce, burnt caramel, roses, grapefruit and roasted malts. Full-bodied with raining notes of bitter grapefruit, red oranges, resin, grass, mild pepper on a foundation of subtle burnt caramel and rye bread. Long really bitter finish of grapefruit, blood-grape, lemon-zest and grass with subtle burnt caramely undertones. Quite brilliant!!

Dec 1, 2009 Hopped the way that Stone does so well, but with a background of toffee / coffee malt. The bitterness is suprisnly mild nor over the top, but the hop flavor is amazing. Isn’t this just like Aniv 11? That is not a bad thing though.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle. Dark red, clear liquid with a medium-sized, beige head. Aroma is rich with lots of caramel, dried fruits, pine and hops. Taste is sweet and a bit roasted with a lot of caramel malt and dried fruits. Some floral hop notes and a long, bitter finish. Nice.

Nov 30, 2009 Bottle. A beauty. Deep red pour with huge floral nose coming off a lacy head. Huge hoppiness that is balanced with huge caramel malts. Literal tasting notes: "Huge, special, belligerent". I liked this one a lot.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle: Poured a dark brown to almost light black. The head was thick and tan. Aroma was a blast of hops, but you could tell it was affected with a sweet malt balance. The taste was serious maltiness at first, but the hops blasted thru to take on the malt leaving your mouth warm. It felt like this beer was filled with a greater amount of alcohol then the 9.5% on the label.

Nov 26, 2009 Pours a dark red color with brownish tints. Has a full rich complex aroma that is a mix between pine/hops/and herbs. Sits very well in the mouth. Taste is a little bitter, but very enjoyable. A good sipping beer.

Nov 24, 2009 Reddish copper with dense tan head. Malty sweet with citrus hop nose. Big hope bite right from the start. Malt makes an attempt to support but it’s all hops with this brew. Alcohol is present.
