Oct 9, 2009 bottle. Pours thick and heavy, with a sweet malty aroma that carries across the table. Heavy, thick and strong, malt that overpowers. Hops that leave an astringent cloying on the tongue. Just too much.

Sep 29, 2009 Poured from a bottle aged about 8 months after purchased. Earthy, floral hop aroma that leaves a big foamy head. This bastard won’t blow you away like its younger brother. After aging, the malt really breaks through the hops, making for a well balanced beer.

Sep 26, 2009 Pours like a reddish shade of iced tea with quickly fading creamy off-white head. Aroma of raisins, malt, caramel, raspberries, and pine. Flavor is not heavy but intense of pine hops with some caramel in the background. An increasingly bitter finish but still on the smooth side. Some hoppy goodness.
