This bottled brew from Mike Sprinkle at a rating party Indianapolis, IN poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized tan colored long lasting bubbles on top of a semi-transparent brown colored body with no carbonation. The aroma was mildly vinous with brown malts in the nose. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and vinous in the finish. The strong flavor was of very vinous malts with an alcohol burn in the end.

Sampled at Mondial 2006. A rich dark copper that is almost brown. The head is light tan and almost orange. The aroma is alcoholic with apples and caramel. This is like a donut. The taste is dried apples and apricots with some toffee in the finish. There is also some iced tea. This was interesting and heavy.

Amicable butterscotch laces the dates and figs...Fresh cereal and obvious alcohol recall a beer’s younger moments...Cherry and plantane esters ride the residual sugars to the dessert table...
