Apr 26, 2008 Bomber. Pours a dark brown with a medium light brown head. The aroma is mostly yeast, some dark fruit and chocolate. The taste is really nice; a kinda dark Belgian Ale, some yeast, a toasted malt, some prunes and perhaps cherry, a bit of spices and some brown sugar. Really a good beer. Complex and smooth. Alaska knows beer.

Apr 21, 2008 Black like a stout. Lightly hoppy complex aroma. Rich, lightly sweet flavor filled with dates and licorice. Just superb.

Apr 5, 2008 Pours thick, syrupy dark brown. Aroma of slightly burnt figs, cotton candy, some spices and a chocolate yeast. Flavour is full bodied, chocolates, coffee, figs and rock candy come to mind. Truly smoothed bodies and deep. The sweetness kinda over powers the end, but over all, this beer simply rocks! To only experience it on tap would be wonderful!!! Get it if you can, Midnight Sun has a knock out here, our Belgium friends should take notice!!

Mar 23, 2008 Very dark brown to black in color this poured a thick light tan head. There were aromas of yeast, raisen, fig, coffee, chocolate, confectioner’s sugar and a little spice. The flavors followed the nose and was full-bodied, concentrated and had a smooth midpalate that faded toward a dry finish. This had just a touch more sweetness then I would prefer but was really very enjoyable.

Mar 17, 2008 My bottle (22oz) shared with HogTownHarry & tupalev -- courtesy of kp. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a large frothy light-brown head. Wonderful aroma of earthy yeast, dark fruit, roasted malt, smoke, brown sugar and more, there’s lots going on here. Flavour: Geez Louise that’s tasty! Sweet with caramel malt, brown sugar, dark fruit, spices, yeast, mild hops and alcohol -- quite complex. Alcohol’s pretty well hidden making this dangerously easy to drink. Medium to full bodied. Superb!

Mar 15, 2008 Via liquidsolutions. Pours a dark brown with a one finger creamy brown head. The aroma is sweet, some alcohol, ruddy aroma, light Belgian. The flavor shows some alcohol, earthy, meaty, sweet, light Belgian. The palate is full with a soft carbonation. Not terribly impressed with this one.
