Jul 31, 2009 Bottle. Nutmeg brown color with a slight reddish hue. Off white head that laces nicely. Big hop nose with lots of pine and citrus. Great big flavor and mouthfeel. Burnt sugar, grassy hops, and a pleasantly warming alcohol. Good malt balance with the hops. Not overly sweet and not too bitter. Just very flavorful. Very well done.

Jul 16, 2009 Nice strong beer. Pours a cloudy copper color, fluffy white head. Sweet aroma. The flavor is also fairly sweet malty but a good bit of hop in the finish. Also a good bit of alcohol in the finish, giving it a raw edge. I dig it.

Jul 15, 2009 65 cl bottle at my garage-tasting May 8th. As «Double Red Ale». Brown orange color, beige head. Aroma is sweet malty and hops. Flavor is sweet, hoppy, citrus. A bit raw on the hops, but a very nice beer.

Jul 13, 2009 22 oz. bottle. 9.0% ABV per the bottle. Pours a exuberant short lived head, over a clear reddish amber (SRM 20) body....nose of toffee, bit of resin, bit of citrus, some sensation of dried fruit (cherry, raisin)....taste is not as complex as the nose would suggest, starting with sweet malts, which are quickly over taken by heavy lingering hop bitterness....mouth feel is medium to heavy, carbonation made for a creamy sensation. This is reminiscent of a very young Barley wine and should therefore be somewhat unbalanced. I think this could use a bit of age to reach its true peak.

Jul 12, 2009 Deep mahogany with a thin beige head. Smells sweet and slightly peppery with a bit of citrus. First taste is of caramel, followed by toffee and fruit, and ends with plenty of hoppy bitterness.
