Oct 27, 2008 Smells malty, nutty, and raisins. Taste is chocolaty, very dark fruit, nutty, malty, not too sweet, a little thin. Good stuff, would drink again.

Oct 16, 2008 Bottle from NYC.
Strong raisin aroma, very dark ruby. Lots of sweet dark fruit, yet there are dusty hops giving a cocoa-like dryness underneath. Lovely rich sipping beer, balances between fruit and dry rather than sweet and sour.

Oct 15, 2008 Poured a clear dark chestnut brown with a small tan head. There was an aroma of roasted malt, a slight sweetness and a hint of chocolate. The flavor was of earthy malt with a dry and slightly bitter finish.

Oct 10, 2008 Nice brown color and not a lot of head. Fairly smooth and drinkable. Nutty flavor and mild aftertaste. Decent overall, but not outstanding.

Mahogany coloured with a very thin off white head. Full of roasted malt with a light smoky, almost ashy note. Faint nutty chocolate finish. not much going on but it’s drinkable enough.
