Jun 29, 2007 Bottle. Ruby red color with a nice cream colored head. Big caramel aroma with spice, fig and plum. Rich caramel/toffee malt with yeast, dark stone fruitiness, and spice. Alcohol nticable but not overpowering. LIngering caramel and spice. Body a little lighter than expected. Good complexity.

Jun 25, 2007 Poured a darkish amber color with a thin white head, mostly clinging to the glass edges. Cloves and other spices, caramel, yeast, and maybe a little leather on the nose. Burnt caramel sweetness to start, yielding to nice meld of light spice and a little heat. Took a second, but I like this one.

Jun 25, 2007 Dark mahogany body, rapidly fading head, mediocre lacing. Crude sweet malty aroma, with strong yeastiness. Burnt sugar, yeast and dark fruit. Taste is sickly sweet up front and dries out on the spicy & yeasty finish. Slight hopbitterness is revealed in the finish too. Solid mouthfeel with little carbonation.

Jun 24, 2007 Strong banana aroma with a malty sweetness. Amber color with foamy tan head. Flavor is dried fruits, caramel, roasted malt, toffee, and rounds out to a light bitter finish. Good amount of flavor changes throughout with a good long duration. Fairly rich and creamy in the mouth. Light alcoholic finish. Quite good.
