Jul 22, 2008 Pours cloudy ruby with one finger frothy head. Aroma is raspberry, plum, ginger, and clove. Yeast character is quite prevalent, contributing to some serious spicyness. Other aromas are sweet sugary malt. Flavor quite sweet, though not cloying. Lots of spice complemented by banana, caramel, and molasses. Dark fruits prevalent. Sugars are thouroughly present, and contribute to well balanced and well crafted treat. Palate is thick, sweet, and rich, and suprisingly full. Alcohol is amazingly well hidden- never has 12% been this subtle. I was quite suprised by the character of this brew, for its complexity and flavors are hard hitting and well balanced.

Jul 21, 2008 2005 bottle.
Pours a deep murky brownish red with very little white head and a bit of sediment. Aroma of fruits, alcohol yeast and spices are present. Flavor is subtle rasins, apples, bread, spices, vanilla, yeast and banana. Alcohol is well integrated at this age and this finishes with a nice thick but not quite too syrupy mouthfeel.

Jul 19, 2008 Bottle from Sam’s Clybourn. Pour is deep and dark with a thin offwhite head. Nose is sweet and tart, alcohol and cloves. A little yeast. Taste is loaded, lot of sweet and spicy character with a ton of alcohol noticeable. Rich, but far from great in my book...

Jul 18, 2008 Updated: Jul 19, 2008PIB, tap... Poured ruby with a white head. Aroma of cloves and yeast and hops. Very, very sweet with bitter, strong alcohol and a nice malt and hop presence. Like strong, exaggerated wheat ale.
