Aug 12, 2008 Pours a deep burgundy with small, dissipating off-white head and a little spotty lacing. Nose is quite nice, with those vinous, rummy qualities you expect from a good old ale, with notes of oak and cherries, and even a hint of mint added to the complexity. Decent, smooth body with a nice full mouthfeel that leads from banana esters to deep lightly roasted malts and burnt toffee before a rooty licorice finish. A nice old ale.

Aug 9, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown color with a small head. Smels of fruit and wood.l. Almost a tar like richness on the way as it rolls in ones tonque. Really compact mixture between sour and sweet.

Aug 9, 2008 Bottle. Dark reddish brown colour with a small beige head. Aroma is a bit sweet with hints of oak. Sweet and sourish taste with notes of oak and dried fruits. Slightly bitter aftertaste. Quite full-bodied. I was expecting more from this beer. It wasn’t bad but not as good as I thought it would be.
