| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jul 13, 2009 750ml caged and corked bottle, served in a snifter. The cork came out with a very weak thump. Hazy dark brown pour with some reddish highlights and almost no head or lacing. Close to still. The aroma consisted of burnt sugar, dried raisins, dark fruits, caramel, toasted nuts, and some faint chocolate. Slightly vinous and woody also. The flavor had molasses, chocolate, caramel, raisins, and some mild alcohol. Richer and much more roasty than the nose indicated. The mouthfeel was full-bodied and slick, but there was almost no carbonation. This was pretty distracting considering that this is a style that usually has some fairly aggressive carbonation. This beer definately has potential, but it looks like they are still having some bottling issues. danielcurtis81 (917), San Diego, California, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 18, 2008 At Savor. Conjures images of mounds of chocolate. Thick pour leaves nutmeg on the nose with the omnipresent chocolate notes. Covers the tongue and won’t let go. Molasses, apricot then on to a dark chocolate finish.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 10, 2008 This is alot like Raison D’Etre by Dogfish Head. Must be the raisins. The raisins give it a very dank, Belgian flavor. This doesn’t show so well in Lost and Found, but does really shine in this beer. Pours a dark brown with a nice tan head. Flavor is raisins, figs, cherries and chocolate. Very yummy beer! ogglethorp (890), Ohio, USA

Pours a dark ruby/brown color witha medium sized tan colored head. Aroma of huge sweet malts, raisins, prunes, figs, light caramel and toffee. Flavor is sweet malts, caramel, raisins, figs, honey, spice. Palate is full bodied, medium carbonation, finished sweet and warming. Fantastic.
