bb (2088), Martinez, California, USA May 1, 2008 Bottle. Bronish beer with no head. Sweet malt, caramel, light alcohol aroma with light citrus backing. Caramel, malt flavor with enough hops to keep things fresh tasting. Medium body. Lingering malt and light backing pine. Hops keep things lively, but are in background. Alcohol present in aroma, but light and well hidden in flavor.

pepsican (727), the beer wastelands of, Iowa, USA Apr 20, 2008 06 vintage. Pours a brown amber with a thin off whtie head. Strong candy sugar aroma, some malts. Flavor was more malt, light cherry, plums, grapes. Finishes slightly syrupy. Claims 12% on the bottle, I can’t believe that. Seems a bit thin, no burn at all. elmatador00 (518), j-action-ville, North Carolina, USA Apr 6, 2008 06 Vintage. Pours a dark brown with no head. Aroma is mostly caramel. Tastes of sugar, dark fruit, caramel, more sugar, and little earthy taste. Finishes with a warming sweet taste. Palate remains sticky and sweet throughout brew. Thanks to OldMrCrow for this brew.
