2009 Vintage
A - Hazy copper amber. 2 fingers of tan head that clings to the side of the glass.
S - Loads of fruity malt, plums, red grapes, doughy yeast, sweet oranges, maple syrup, oak wood.
T - Sweet toasted toffee malt, caramelized brown sugar, soft buttery flavor, fruity, woody hop resin coats the tongue.
M - Viscous, creamy carbonation, very nice texture.
This has aged very well. The hops are still present and really help compliment the finish. Very smooth flavors and great mouthfeel.

Poured from a 750ml, 2008 bottle. The aroma is dominated by sweet alcohol and malts. The flavor is fruity alcohol, toffee, chocolate, oxidation. There aware noticeable signs of oxidation, but still a tasty beer.

750 ml bottle. Amber orange color topped by.a small beige head that leaves a leopard-like spotted clinging lace. Aroma is sweet butterscotch malt. Flavorful toasted malt palate is ripe with peppery hops and complex spicy nuances. Nicely balanced with a chewy, long dry finish.

Bottle. Pours a hazy, medium-dark copper with some soapy head. Aroma and malts are very similar to regular dead guy ale. Meh.
