Dec 1, 2009 Pours a orangeish brown with a big head and good lace. The aroma is of pear cherry alcohol with spicy yeast notes and a general sweetness. The flavor is of apple, brandy, nutty, with some pear and a light hop bitterness. There are light notes of brown sugar and the alcohol is quite warming. Not a ton to report here except to say that this is absolutely delicious. .

Nov 28, 2009 Pours a dark, but clear brown with a wonderful aroma. The taste is sweet and incredibly malty and nutty but not overpowering. A lovely drink both alone and with food. Great for chilly weather, but I think I could drink this at any time during the year.

Nov 28, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a tan head. Rich caramel aroma. Flavor is loaded with caramel and dark fruits, raisin, plum, fig. It’s a pretty sweet beer (my only complaint really, a bit too sweet) and finishes with a nice alcohol warmth. Quite tasty--a nice choice for my 500th rating!

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle. A sweet caramel and some brown sugar on the nose. Dark body with off white head. Sweet spicey fruits with the caramel in the background. Little alcohol on last swig, seems to have mellowed out a bit.
