argo0 (6144), Washington DC, USA Dec 17, 2006 (22oz bottle) Murky mud-brown body with small but creamy beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, some roast, raisin, clove/nutmeg, pine/grapefruit, light wood. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, date, some sourness, finishing pine/grapefruit. Medium body, undercarbonated. CaptainCougar (4624), Rockville, Maryland, USA Dec 23, 2003 Pours a rich milk chocolate brown with a thick frothy light tan head. Soft bready chocolate chip cookie dough aroma mixed with caramel toffee and roasted malt, well balanced with a moderate hop presence. Body is rich and robust with a nice roasty sweetness and dry finish. Good complexity and fullness. A very nice winter warmer. Thanks TChrome! BückDich (4525), Boise, Idaho, USA Mar 9, 2005 Sampled bottled Dark brown color, decent lacing & moderate carbonation. The nose is very spicy with some nutty & Christmassy fruits. Cranberry or something. Eh. The flavor is nicely balanced & musky, very unique. hopdog (4524), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 4, 2004 Poured a dark amber color with an averaged sized dark tan head.
