May 30, 2008 Dark brown with a thin lid of milk tan bubbles. Charred fruit, sweet aromatic woods, dark cherries, dates and a hint of creosote in the nose. Interesting, but not overly pleasant. smoke and ashes fill the mouth from the start. Some mild vinous qualities, I happen to be reminded of an old bottle of cab with a dry cork. Some nibs, elderberries and choke cherries also creep in. LIght soft palate. Very earthy and course.

Mar 16, 2008 Jet black with a lasting tan head. Chocolate, dark fruits and brettanomyces in the aroma. Dry, with a bit of chocolate and some brett in the flavour - and the brett doesn’t seem like a good idea at all.

Aug 21, 2009 Bottle from Liquid Solutions. Pours very dark brown with a very large tan head. Aromas of chocolate and some sort of fruit. Full bodied with rather smooth carbonation. Flavor is dark chocolate, dark roasted malt, and something like plummy. Finish is quite unbitter, except for chocolate. Seems to be a little vinous. Quite interesting and good.
