May 16, 2008 Thanks to 17th floor for this one as well. Dark almost hazy red with darker, medium thick creamy beige head. Fresh moldy orange, slightly caramel, and grapefruit. Big grapefruit and astringent citrus, very sweet, a little cloying. Thin, watery , oily. This is not very good, unless you like moldy oranges.

May 15, 2008 2008 Bottle. Pours a very dark copper (like an old penny) with great tan head. Aroma of raisins, plums, alcohol, rum-soaked dark fruit. Alcohol is very evident. Bitter hops balance the syrupy sweet body.

May 9, 2008 Updated: Jul 11, 2009Murky caramel colored with a medium off white head that leaves some minor lacing. Aroma of heavy caramel, malt, honey, mild fruit and a decent amount of hoppiness. Taste of heavy caramel malt, fruit and a fair amount of hops to balance it pretty good. Finishes up with low to moderate bitterness with some of the alcohol coming through.
(05-08-08)Dark orange with a thin white head. Aroma is very sweet and hoppy. Pretty smooth with a sweet backbone than makes way for a bitter finish. Not overly bitter.

May 3, 2008 Not retired, as there is a 2008 version now out. I had last year’s. Not too hoppy, but significant. Not too malty but significant. An easy drinking, dangerously hidden alcohol. Good head initially. Nothing outstanding but it was enjoable and satisfying.
