Aug 3, 2009 Initial aroma of heavy chocolate malt and a caramelized sugar undertow. Also present is a melancholy alcohol and stingy spice; cardamon allspice. Color is dark with a voluminous tan head. Upon pouring, the spices come on full bore. Taste is bubbly and sweet with a hint of coffee at the end.

Jul 26, 2009 Beautiful pour, very dark cola with a gorgeous effervescent tan head. Allspice, caramel, huge malt, port-like aroma. Sweet, chocolate with raisin, pepper, and just a bit of warm alcohol. Enough carbonation to keep it from being heavy and cloying. Just a super beer.

Jul 14, 2009 another one with no notches on the day and week from psprings. Licorice and fermented silage aroma. Dark body with beige head. Decent sweet friuts and light roasted malt. Smooth on the palate but every other swig was somewhat watery. Thanks Paul.

Jul 12, 2009 another one with no notches on the day and week from psprings...
fudgy aroma with notes of cardamom, roast, bready yeast and spicy red wine.
the flavor has an unexpected lactic tartness... mixed with roast, chocolate, yeast, red wine, brown sugar and a tart dry spiciness on the finish.
it is medium bodied with a nice acidity level. 8/4/8/3/16/3.9
