Feb 15, 2005 A hazy brown beer with a small brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of chocolate. The flavor is malty with notes of caramel and chocolate and a dry end.

Feb 17, 2005 Bottled. Mahogany colour. Sweet and lightly almondy with some banana. Richly malty, toffeeish and raisiny, slightly salty finish. Big, flavourful brew, but too sweet.

Feb 27, 2005 Slightly rubyish brown colour. The aroma is chocolatey, richly fruity. The flavour is quite sweet, chocolatey with notes of oranges and sultanas. A little too hot and too spritzy, and these elements make the beer seem uncohesive.

Jan 20, 2004 Medium brown head atop a dark brown body with scintilla of red. Aroma is raisin, some yeasty spice, anise, light cherry, and alcohol. Taste is medium sweet, raisin, some anise, light wood, definite alcohol. Finishes with nice alcohol warming. Medium-full body with moderate acidity. I had very high expectations for this beer, and maybe the fact that they were not met biases me against it. Nevertheless, I do not think this beer is anything special, much less a top 50 beer.

dark with ruby highlights, half a glass of big foamy tan head,
rich malt aroma with an wide array of esters,
lots of complex malt flavors and esters, hints of sweet and sour, bits of chocolate and banana, alcohol is well hidden, only a touch of bitterness
