3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Tap at Barleys. Poured a dark cloudy brown with thin tan head. Hints of a typical english strong ale. Reasoning was all the booze and hops. Finished thin and hoppy.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Barley’s. Slightly cloudy copper with orange tints and thick white head. Some lacing. Aroma is maltly with some hop presence, but is neither strong nor distinct. Light palate. Decent malt/hop combonation on the taste, but the hop character finishes with some astringency. Pretty uneventful.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Sampled at the 2007 BrewGrass Festival. Amber pour with a light head. Spicy hop aroma. Flavor does not have much more with spicy, nutty hops that are fairly strong with malty grain. Semi-dry medium body. I could not have been more under whelmed. It was just lackluster.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a hazy, dark amber color, with a medium, off white head. Mild citrus aroma, with a big malt base. Nothing overpowering or really enticing. The flavor is hoppy, with a decent floralness to it, mixed in with some citrus fruit. Overall pretty mild in its aromas and flavors. Kind of watery on the palate, seemed to need a little something. Not really impressed here.

muddy dark amber, whispy beige head, nice drippy lace, rich malt flavor with lots of earthy hops on a dry carmel malt base, touch of carmel sweetness, a hoppy old ale?

still the heavy handed earthy hops and bitterness, picks up a wonderful carmel sweetness after about an hour that balances it out nicely

spicy chocolate continues to be the dominant aroma,
the chocolate flavor is very dry and earthy, just a touch of caramel sweetness sneaks out ot add balance,
