Sep 2, 2009 bottled 3/5/09poured a dark ruby and brown in color with a thick foamy two finger light tan head that stuck around. aroma has sweet chewy caramel malt, rich dark malt, vanilla, dark sweet fruit, and some rum cake. medium mouth feel with light carbonation coats the tongue well. flavor has plenty of rich malt, vanilla, thick caramel sweetness, some earth, and a hit of alcohol at the end. i really like the flavors in this one, but the sweetness does get a little high even for a sweet lover.

Aug 31, 2009 Pours out rich reddish brown. Aroma is mixture of caramel and vanilla, almost as if the beer had been aged in a charred oak cask. The nose predicts the flavor in that there is rich caramel/vanilla sweetness backed up by some earthy bitterness. I’ll definitely buy this beer again.
