Mar 16, 2008 12 oz bottle from Liquor Stop, IN. Pours a light brown with a beige head. Nose is sweet malts, caramel, brown sugar with a touch of nuts. The taste is about the same. Nothing special here. What else can I say ... I drank most of it ... but I don’t really care to try it again.

Mar 16, 2008 Pours a dark, transloucent brown with a big tan head that slowly settles. Nice aroma of sweet malt and some hops. Taste is sweet up front, malt, fruit, molassas. Creamy mouthfeel. Finishes better than most of Sam’s beers. I really like this one.

Mar 16, 2008 Amber brown in color. Nice head with good lacing. Not to bitter, lots going on once it reaches the palate but doesn’t offend Not much aroma but what it had was a nice welcome. A definite new favorite.

Mar 14, 2008 Pours a clear ruby with brown around the edges, has a medium size head of off-white and tan bubbles that dissapate quickly, ale left some decent lacing on the glass, roasted and toasted malt aromas with faint cola fragrances, malt sweetness, that has a touch of candy, real faint chocolate, faint nut fragrance, flavors of dark or big toasted malt, some roasted malt, faint licorice and nut in the background, has a medium hop bite, that sort of lingers on the palate, medium mouth feel with medium carbonation, not a bad drink, I think this had more carbonation then what I prefer and gave this beer a fizzier feel then needed.

Mar 13, 2008 Probably my favorite from Sam Adams. This beer has a damn good flavor. It’s medium to full flavored with a heavy body and amazing aftertaste. I bought it in a variety pack and will buy this again.

Mar 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours hazy brown, ruby, off white head. Aroma is malt, caramel, toffee, some metal. Flavor is the same with smoke, nuts, bread. Well rounded for the genre.
bigtaster (184), Grand Rapids, USA
Mar 10, 2008 Pours a nice dark brown with reddish hues fairly clear. Lasting beige head. Sweet malty aroma, brown sugar, yeast. Yeasty, sweet, high carbonation, slightly bitter. Abrupt finish. Looking for a bit more flavor and complexity, but a good drinker.
