travita (737), Lewisville, Texas, USA Apr 25, 2008 Brown to black in color with a huge foamy head. Smells of smoke, oak, hops, and leather. Medium body. Sticky at the back of the mouth. Taste is woody, malts, leather, and roastiness.
caesar (2514), Zeist, Netherlands Sep 6, 2008 Bottle, brought by NoiZe. Clear brown color, short head. Aroma of hop, raisin, slight fruity. Bit barley wine like. Malty, complex. Malty and fruity taste, brandy, madeira. Keeps on developing while you drink. Good. IlanMan (534), Winona, Minnesota, USA Sep 6, 2008 Pour was dark brown/golden with no head. Aroma of dark fruit, roasted malt, and sweet alcohol. Very low carbonation makes for a smooth mouth feel. Very sweet malt flavors with more roast, dark fruit, caramel, and maybe some raisin character. Very malty! Damn good brew. Would definitely love to try again. skortila (2400), Bunnik, Netherlands Sep 6, 2008 Bottled. Aroma has a lot of raisin and other dried fruitiness. Dark brown coloured with a thin off-white head.

In the aroma there is figs, roasted barley (very roasted) and alcohol. Flavor is of figs, and roasted barley sweet, with a slight burn from the alcohol. amish_caravan (210), Winona, Minnesota, USA Sep 4, 2008 pours a very dark brown with almost no head which is true to the style. taste is of fermented fruit and caramel. finish is very smooth.
