Oct 14, 2009 Pours a very dark ruby red/chestnut brown color that’s almost black and completely opaque without even the slightest bit of lighter edges when held to a light source. Huge frothy light tan/coffee colored head with amazing retention that only slowly settles into a lasting cap that leaves thick chunks of soapy lacing in it’s wake.
Spicy pepper aroma with lots of dark fruit notes, especially dark cherry, grape, raisin and plum. Also, there is some prominent candy sugar, sage, brown sugar and dry piny hops.
Peppery spice flavor up front with a full bodied dark roasted malt body. Lots of dark cherry, plum and raisin with a prominent chocolate malt presence. Very well balanced, smooth and creamy and the high ABV is very well masked. This beer is amazing.

after4ever (2709), Brier, Washington, USA
Sep 15, 2009 750, corked, baled, and foiled. Thanks, Maria! Pours essentially jet black with a brief, creamy, beautiful tan head that settles quickly to bits of film, foam, and lace. Lovely rich chocolate, spice, roast, and dust on the nose. Creamy medium body, understated carb, and all the aromatics back in flavorful form on the mid-palate. Nicely done. Tasty beer.

Aug 25, 2009 May ’09. Pretty good, a near gruit in flavor. Big, heavy, fruity, but not cloyingly sweet, making it drinkable. Something to drink slowly.
