Great beer. Sweet plums, raisins, and some wheat in the aroma and flavor. The alcohol is well hidden by the strong sweet flavor. Full bodied, thick, and complex flavor.

Aug 25, 2008 Copper tinted dark brown, some long-lasting creamy head.
Strong sweet nose, some graininess, light clove and banana notes. Somewhat metallic aroma.
Strong alcohol character, ethyl and fusel, strong sweetness. Warm and robust alcohol burning. Light fruitiness, a note of bitterness.
Strong but not overpowering, fades quickly to a residual sweet malty effect. Lingering roasted character.
