The aroma is great, the appearance is just perfect. and the flavorful taste is great, and the after taste is not too strong and its great.

Brown orange body, creamy beige head; Quite big nose, peated malt, caramel, chestnut creme, some red berries; Huge big bubbled carbonation in soft textured a bit thin bitter sweet body, unbalanced; Thick sweetness in quite long finish, strange caramel sweetness, smoked aromas. Very strange beer. Thanks Hopscotch.

gets points for originality. thinnish astringent type brew settles some in the glass. earthy sweetish licorice flavor that is light. the smokiness is decently infused into the concoction, but i kept thinking ’"liquid smoke". little bit peppery with another spice as well. gets a point or two since it clearly is a good beer with strongly spiced subtle (vegetables) asian type food. it competes well in that area.

Bottle. Smoky aroma with some nutty scents mixed in there too. Deep, rich, smoky flavor slightly increasing with the aftertaste. Perfect for those chilly spring nights with your buddies.

UPDATED: APR 12, 2007 Ah. The female magic hat. This is only a beer for when your in love. and you should be in love all the time. So basically this beer is suitable at any time. Like it when I reach into the back pack and pull one of these out.

Pours a amber color with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malts,hops, and some caramel. Taste is smooth and slightly smoked. not to shabby

Complex aroma of burnt nuts and light chocolate. Clear dark amber/brown. Not much in the way of a head hear. Starts off nutty finishes slightly bitter.

Jinx pours a light black color with an average, creamy light-brown head. Almost no lacing, coupled with a fully diminishing head contribute to a less than stellar appearance. Aroma is of light grain malts with chocolate notes and alcohol. Initial taste is moderately sweet, backing off to a light sweet finish with an average duration. Light body, dry texture, and lively carbonation make this a drinkable ale.
