North Coast Brother Thelonious

750 ml.. bottle. 9.4% ABV. Pours a thin head with minimal lacing, over a dark reddish brown slightly cloudy body, and minimal yeast sediment.....nose of esthers, fruits primarily citrus, cherry....tastes of esthers including lots of cherry, some raisin, delightfully complex and somewhat sweet...mouth feel is thick and chewy. North coast labels it as an abbey strong and it certainly meets the style. Quite delicious!!! 11/30/2008

(small) Bottle from Systembolaget When poured it looks like a darker version of Coke, with a small short lasting head. The armoa contains enough citrus to reveal that its an american brew. Chocklaty malts in taste.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden brown with a semi fizzy tan head. Spice, berry fruity and malty aroma. Sweet malty with a solid roasted flavoured and spiced malt base. Lingering spiced and fruity flavoured, lasting into the finish. Slight sticky.

sourish, citruish aroma sort of lures me on.. what the f* is this?, very faint dark fruits and raisins. clear red, nice head. flavor is dark fruits, raisins(faint) , nutyish sweetish marcipanish flavor, nice.

750 mL bottle. Brownish amber pour with a medium tan head. Aroma of caramel and raisins. Nice lacing, taste of raisins, caramel, bread and malt. Aftertaste has a nice warming alcohol flavoring but not too much that gets in the way of an even finish.

Bottle. Dark amber with small whitish head. Caramel and fruit. Brown bread. The malt hides the alcohol quite well, maybe too well. Low bitterness.

From a bottle poured an amber/light brown color with a small head. Nice smooth malty flavor with a lingering finish.
