Jun 7, 2006 Hot, boozy, sweet malt aroma is quite fruity with plenty of grassy, vegetal, herbal resinous hop character. Opaque brown body is topped by a low tan head that recedes to ring. Thick, sweet maple, berries, chocolate and cherries with a light roasty component and lingering sweetness. Pleasant fruity aftertaste, but I feel like I could breathe fire. Alcohol is quite apparent. Strong warming. Thick, syrupy texture to the medium full body. Hot, hot, hot. Bottle (trade, May-05) sampled with MartinT, Olivier MTL, Rastacouere and Siroy. Thanks, hopdog!

Mild tannins in a thick doughy raisinbread malt with brown sugar and hints of dates. Residual bready malt in the finish with a heavy hot alcohol presence and fruity esters. Mouthfeel is thick, heavy, and rather hot.
