A dark brow pour with a very smooth texture. I think it may have been a bit too chilled when i first tackled it but the flavors really opened up as i worked at it. Found this to be more complex (though a bit tougher to drink) than the 10...I need to buy this one again

Oct 7, 2008 Excelente cerveja, aromas de caramelo, trufa. Encorpada, notas de álcool bem distintas. Pouca espuma.

does not count  Oct 7, 2008 Pours a reddish dark brown colour with a tan head. Reasonably cloudy and head did not last for as long as I’d anticipated - perhaps due to an average pour. Initially flavour is malty, with fruits and spice to follow, ending with smooth toffee and chocolate flavours. These chocolate and caramel flavours come through stronger as the beer progresses, and the raisin and spice become more subtle. Beautifully smooth for such a complex beer, alcohol well hidden. Lovely and warming on a cold day.

Oct 4, 2008 0.33ml, pours a dark brown with a pale beige head. There is so much yeast in the glass it’s doing backflips with the carbonation. After a few sips, the head is spotted with the yeast and looks like little specks of cinnamon. Amazingly complex beer - malt, dark fruits (raisins, cherries, plums), spice, toffee, liquorice... alcohol on the finish. This is a fantastic beer...

Oct 4, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy brown pour with a fantastic frothy large tan head. Great lacing. Aroma of plums, yeast and raisins. Full taste with caramel, yeast, malt, and dark fruit present. Nice even but full finish.

Oct 4, 2008 Bottle. Hazy black with thick head. Complex falvor, dark and malty but also a (strange) sweet afteraste. Too much carbonation.
