Jun 1, 2008 25.4 oz bottle. Cloudy brown with rosy edges and a puffy bone head. Nose is surprisingly subdued orange marmalade and cranberry. Body on the heavy side but not quite syrupy. Carb tingle. Taste is musty peach, kiwi, caramel and escarole. Buttery aftertaste with cucumber skin.

Sep 10, 2009 750ml bottle ’08 9/10/09 (Binny’s Naperville)-Pours a hazy amber with a small off white head. Aroma of sweetness, malt, and toffee. Taste of sweetness, toffee, dried fruits, and a little hops. I agree with the previous reviews that this full bodied brew is bordering if not a Barley Wine. Quite drinkable and hides the ABV very well. Nice job.

Aug 20, 2008 2008 Bottle. Interesting, the screw bit on the cage is for lefties... Pours with a huge, frothy, off-white head covering a hazed brown body. Good lacing. Aroma is honey, ginger, dark fruits, tangy and cloying toffeem and some hops and sticky pineapple. Taste is malty and a bit tangy (imperial ESB?) and a touch metallic. Not that interesting or refreshing, but just ’okay’.

Jul 25, 2009 7 something at grapevine< 12 something everywhere else. Pours dark brown, clear(see-through) like a lager. Molassess sugary sweet aroma. Strong sweet barely taste, and strong alcohol presence in the mouthfeel.Unfortunately< its rather easy to drink. Doesn’t exhibit very strong carbonation. It leaves a moderate lacing on the glass. Reminds me really of a barley wine. That’s what is mostly is anyway.
