Rich, malty to an extreme with a fascinating aroma, opaque reddish brown colour and a fascinating Coca-Cola like aftertaste this beer is truly something special. The only thing seperating it from pure perfection is that I wouldn’t mind if it had a better head to it. EricE (450), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 9, 2008 Opaque red-brown pour with a thin white head. Lots of banana and clove on the aroma. Sweet vanilla and fruit as well. Intense flavor. Very sweet with fruity cloves and some maple. Very bitter finish. Alcohol hits you like a punch in the face. A bit too much for me and prevented me from enjoying it more. Soonah (910), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 9, 2008 Poured a turbid brown color that supported an off-white, two-finger tall head. The head had some staying power and there were streaks of lacing. The aroma was malt, alcohol, wheat and something like prunes. The flavor was dominated by malt and wheat with some softer fruit and a bit of alcohol. Almost medium in body and not the smoothest finish. Decent. blutt59 (2091), Dallas, Texas, USA
