apingos (77), Rockford, Illinois, USA May 20, 2007 on tap at the oasis in rockford. tan head, very light body that was very well balanced. A very smooth dark ale with no biterness. Excellent caramel taste. Nejhleader (924), Lemoyne, Pennsylvania, USA May 20, 2007 kinda a redish colour. bit of a syrupy body, has a bit of a sweet fruity aroma, has a hop presence in the taste along with a bit of smoke. McGraths Pub. kmweaver (2398), Sebastopol, California, USA May 19, 2007 12oz bottle, courtesy of someone from a while back. Pours a murky brown color; minimal head formation with a thin perimeter of small bubbles. Dense, caramel and dried fruits in the aroma. Medium, chewy mouthfeel: caramel and bubble gum upfront (slightly fruity, a bit syrupy), with some smoke and roasted malts; hides its alcohol reasonably well. Decent scotch ale. Lengthy, sugary and roasted malt finish. Aurelius (2643), Tallahassee, Florida, USA May 16, 2007 Fruity, slightly diacetyl aroma. Ruby brown. Plummy, almost barleywine. Slightly chalky mouth. Very light cocoa. On tap, McNivens, Indianapolis. jason (1620), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA May 15, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear red body with nice head. Aroma is smokey malt, bubblegum, caramel. Flavor is a dry sweet malt, caramel, light bubblegum and a lot of smokiness. Nice full bodied brew. Very enjoyable. bdigital (585), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA May 13, 2007 This is a great beer. Pours a toffee-brown color with a small white head. Has a nice malty, caramel aroma and the mouth feel on this is great; smooth, fairly thick and just overall wonderful. Starts out fairly tame with some roasted malt, caramel, and toffee notes and finishes with a decent smoky bite. Will definitely seek out again.
