Thanks to JMFG for the taste. Poured a cloudy dark brown with a spongy beige head. Smelled of dates, figs and a lot of sugar. This is ultra sweet with some malts and a little sherry. Lots of carbonation, too. Overal, a very good beer.

Big lasting sponge head. Apples, raisin, caramel, bread, yeast and a hint of alcohol in the baked desert aroma. Flavour is alcohol and sugar like an alcohol based sauce to pour over a baked desert. Lots of character as the malt floats over your tongue like waves. Alcohol, sugar, coffee, toffee and a hint of chocolate.

Sample courtesy JMFG. Pours a brownish red with a little head. Big caramel malt toffee, sweet sticky aroma. Sweet malt taste with caramel sherry and dark fruits. Very good beer.

Bomber purchased at the Publick House. I was concerned this would be past its prime, but was quickly relieved. Poured a ruddy brown with substantial foam. Nose was a little muted but had a distinct wood and spice aroma. Palate was thick but with still enough carbonation to keep it lively. Flavor was very enjoyable with no alcohol presence: sugary, sweet malts up front that were balanced with a long oaky dryness. This was perfectly aged with great flavor characteristics and nuance. I recommend grabbing bottles that are still kicking around.

Nice caramel and sweet BIG malts. Fruity and figgy. Strong alcohol taste. Not overpowering. Syrupy body. Pretty cool.
