Bourbon colored appearance with floating sediment. Flavor is bready with fruity undertones. Also detect some raisins. Improves as it warms - would make a good bellywarmer in the winter. Alcohol is hidden well - although after a 1 pt 9.4 fl oz - you know it was there! mrkimchee (1414), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 5, 2005 33 cl bottle. Amber color with a rich tan head that leaves plenty of lacing. Aromas of green apples, caramel and dried fruits. Taste is really complex. Taste starts of on the sweet side with malts and chocolate before the high alcohol gives way to figs, rum, banana and clove. Medium bodied and really good. mdi (573), Nebraska, USA

Some loose floaters, a few chunky lazy bubbles jumping...amber/brown...no real head, but some clinging lace. Aroma slight moist cork.musty, definite plum, raisin, grape, leather, slight alcohol behind it, but pleasing overall. Full, sweet body w/o obvious thickness...lingering...Flavor is set off by the sweet finish, and highlighted by the dark fruits & alcohol...madeira to an extent...complex sweetness a bit of clove and vanilla begins to come out in the nose now...and the sweetness is just right...not too much or too thick. Excellant beer. Late night sipper, elegant. footbalm (1219), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

Fairly small head, but it sticks to the glass. Lovely aroma of figs. Sweetish and extremely potent with lovely, fruity ale-esters. Notes of chocolate, nuts, figs, dates, caramel - all the goodies. Lovely beer. 311002 2philosophers (16), Ridgewood, New York, USA
