Mar 20, 2008 12oz bottle. Reddish/purple hued body with a small, compact light brown head. Great retention and serviceable lacing is present as well. Nose is floral hops, caramel, molasses, dark fruits and brown sugar. Maybe get a hint of concord grapes and some phenol heat in there as well. Fore is juicy dark fruit esters, grapes, floral/perfume hops and caramel malts. Medium body, very vinous thanks to the fruit hints, average carbonation. Finish is lengthy and boozy, with floral hops, brown sugar and caramel underpinnings. Far reaches of the finish dry out the tongue and back of the throat completely. Interesting brew.

Mar 16, 2008 on tap at The Brick Store Pub. dark red... caramel, toffee and sweet malty aroma. This one is a borderline American Barley WIne. The caramel and malts shine through with a nice even soft and smooth palate. Clean finish... not the most interesting of beers, but very good.

Mar 16, 2008 Pours copper color with light tan head. Aroma is sweet malts, caramel and brown sugar - similar to a barley wine. Flavor is sweet and spicy with alcohol coming through slightly. Full body with a syrupy mouthfeel and mild carboanation. Not bad, may try again.
Ughsmash (3981), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
Mar 16, 2008 Bottled. Poured fiery reddish-copper with an off-white head and slight legs running down the glass. The aroma was sweet and strong with brown sugar and caramel upfront.. deeper rummy undertones.. not too complex, but I certainly enjoyed it. Warm caramel and molasses in the flavor department with strong, but well-executed alcohol currents.. herbal and spicy notes on the edges.. long finish. Syrupy and thick on the palate with an herbal and boozy bite to it.. a tad sharp/rough, but good overall.
