Feb 3, 2009 Dark, dark red with very little head. This beer is incredibly sweet, from smell to taste. Dominant aromas are molasses, raisins, and some spice. Flavor is figs and brown sugar. This is not complex, and arguably too sweet, but I found it strangely satisfying.

Feb 2, 2009 Deep reddish brown with a light brown head. Very malty aroma with hints of dark fruits. I thought the flavor was a bit too sweet, but not bad. Pretty thick palate with a long finish. Just average overall.

Jan 30, 2009 Tap @ Bailey’s Taproom... Poured poured amber with a beige head with some nice lacing. Aroma of earthy malts. Not a lot of carbonation on the palate but was thick and full. Flavors of tea leavers and sweet sugars like caramel. Not a lot of hop bitterness but a little tartness from the alcohol.
