Apr 7, 2008 Bottled. Poured clear, darker brown with a short cap of tan head. The aroma picked up soft, dry semi-sweet chocolate and caramel notes with a touch of vanilla and moderate roast to it. The flavor was centered around dry coffee, chocolate, and caramel with nice accents of brown sugar and dried herbs.. short, dry, sweeter finish. Lighter-bodied and dry on the palate with an overall sweet air to it.. felt just right for the style. This was a good example of a rather crappy style.

Mar 30, 2008 Bottle from sampler from Whole Foods Charlottesville. Pours a deep reddish brown with minimal head but decent retention. Aroma is sweet and roasty. Chewy texture. Taste of coffee, brown sugar, dark fruits. I like this.

Mar 30, 2008 (bottle) Pours light brown with an off-white head. Aroma of light banana, bubblegum, light hops, and toffee. Taste is somewhat hoppy with a little bit of toasted maltiness and chocolate to it as well. Medium mouthfeel, decent.

Mar 30, 2008 Reddish brown with a thin tan head. Light spice on the nose to go with sweet malt. Creamy texture. A little light on the palate leading to a light dry, chalky hop finish. A so-so beer.

Mar 29, 2008 From a 355 ml bottle with a brewed date of Aug 2007-Week One. Pours a rich brown with a little ruby inside. Aroma of smoked barley and chocolate. Fairly heavy mouthfeel. Flavor is very much like chocolate, cocoa, and everything else with similar qualities. This is a reasonably drinkable brew and it reminded me of a milder North Coast Rasputin’s Imperial.
