Oct 11, 2008 [Bottle] shared by guerde. Pours a deep brown with a moderate tan head. Aroma is caramel, raisins, and dark fruits. Flavor is roasted barley, dark fruits, alcohol, a little bit of smokey, earthy flavors. Very light in the mouth, yet rich and full of flavor.

Oct 11, 2008 a well thought out review has been lost due to some kind of glitch in the system. though my interest in rewriting my review is gone my memory of a good brew will linger for some time to come!

Oct 11, 2008 Pours cola brown with big tan head. Sweet aroma of brown sugar, caramel, hops and some smokiness. Alcohol is slightly noticible. Toasted malt flavor with lots of sweetness and some hop bitterness. Full body with prickly carbonation and a sticky mouthfeel.

Oct 1, 2008 12 oz bottle from batch 72. Poured a dark chocolate cloudy brown with a light brown small but thick looking head. It just looks like its a thick beer.The nose exploded upon opening the bottle,sweet, chocolate, belgian yeast. Some decent carbonation, and interesting complex flavor, with a very bitter finish,and a strong hint of alcohol. Hints of cola, chocolate, with a smokey tinge. This is no doubt hearty.
