Dec 11, 2006 04 bottle. Pours a hazy, muddy ruby color, with minimal ruby/tan head. Aroma is raspberries, chocolate. Taste is raspberries, chocolate malts, alcohol, caramel. Palate is full bodied, lightly carbonated, creamy finish. Perhaps my palate is not distinguished enough to pick up all the subtleties and complexities. Very good, but it didn’t leave me with a boner like it did so many others.

Dec 5, 2006 2004 Bottlel-Pours a hazzy, muddy brownish reddish color. Smellls like raisinets and nothing else. Taste is lovely caramel, figs, cinnamon, rasberry, and chocolate. Alcohol is not present at all which makes the taste more enjoyable. Not much head, and the lacing fades away quick but the thichness and richness complexity of this beer makes up for it.

Dec 3, 2006 Bought bottle at K Brewery. No idea where i mssed the boat on this one. Maybe it was the hype. Smooth but too chocolate-y for. I was not prepared for the overwhelming hint of chocolate in this beer. This is another beer that leaves you with that warm fuzzy feeling. It just dissappointed me after all i had read and heard about it.

Nov 24, 2006 Huge thanks to my man on campus--bgburdman! Oh my freakin’ lord--this is special right here. Boozey, caramel and toffee aroma--not much fruit present yet. The appearance is medium brown with almost no head. Palate is thick, full, and creamy. Tons of caramel and toffee flavors here--it tastes like caramel candy. The tart raspberry flavor mixes is to create a lush, rich beer. Fantastic!

Nov 16, 2006 Updated: Nov 22, 2006300th rating !! 6.3 oz 2004 bottle courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a dark murky amber brown color with an inkling of a white laced head that quikly disappears. Aroma is of rich raspberries,dark rich chocolate-like a raspberry chocolate filled coffee cake. Taste is very much like the aroma-raspberry laced rich choclate cake with hints of dark tangy cherries and caramel. This is like drinking a gourmet raspberry chocolate pastry if that is possible. Alcohol is present in every slow sip and pleasantly clears out the nasal cavity. Unusual concoction here, yet very much enjoyable. Thanks again Harry !!

Nov 13, 2006 Courtesy of northerntimber. Hazy dark brown. Small tan head. Nose of rich, chocolate-raspberry candy corn. Flavor adds marshmallows, sweet biscuity malt. Pure luxury. Full, smooth, viscous palate. Worthy of its prominent position.
