Nov 26, 2007 Had this beer on 1/12/2000. Aroma is a rich sweet malt scent. Color is a rich bright amber, carbonation is light with good head. Taste is full and roasted. Starting with a full body it goes down smooth and rich. Finish is a deep roasted flavor backed with a strong hop bitterness. Overall it seems to be a good winter brew.

Dec 28, 2005 Pours a nice dark reddish amber color. Aromas of HOPS, and some other hints, maybe fruit, maybe caramel. Flavor is a bittersweet, malty, and hoppy with a nice dry finish.

Apr 11, 2005 Pours the color of mud. Heavy malt and caramel aroma. Rich malt in the taste with a bit of sweetness and almost a pinch of salt. Simple, but kinda tasty!

Mar 10, 2005 An interesting brew that i found the other day but hasn’t been around for a while. Pours a dark copper red, very clear, with a white head. Aroma is very strong and sweet, just like a well aged barleywine, big caramel malts, brown sugar. Taste was a big letdown though, very thin body with much less sweetness. There was a bit of oxidation in the finish and some faint spicing. I think this brew is a bit past its prime.
