Taste of prunes, nuts, hops, alcohol, caramel, brown sugar, figs, plumes, spice and bread and roasted malt. elihapa (173), Hawaii, USA Jul 6, 2008 From bottle. Pours a velvet brown with a big lively tan head. Quite attractive. Smells of clove, cinnamon, allspice, and caramel malt. Big syrupy palate, with rich flavors. Flavors are heavy on the dark fruit (perhaps cherry and plum),with sweet touches of sugar. Finishes sweet with hints of champagne, and is loaded with spice and fruit so as to make this big beer balanced and tasty. Really nice beer!
