does not count  Dec 12, 2008 Very lively flavor, great aroma and feeling on tongue. Appearance was more cloudy than most beers. Large head. High alcohol content makes for a long, sipping drink.

Dec 10, 2008 Poured dark brown into a tulip glass received on tap today at Acadia in Minneapolis. Faint hints of plum and brown sugar. Taste was excellent, delicious, sweet and warm, the perfect beer to sip and forget about the day. Not the first time I’ve had, and certantly not the last.

Dec 9, 2008 dark brown pour with lots of carbination and a big head....Dark fruits, brown sugar and slight malt. Flavor is of plums and bread. Slight medicinal and alcohol finish. I’m slighttly dissapointed, especially with the finish. But not bad by any means.

Dec 7, 2008 Well here it is, after almost 4 years of aging I finally get to enjoy.
Pours a merky brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is very complex. I notice a lot of variaties of scents, how about dark fruit, caramel. vanilla, plum, yeast, and raisin to name a few.
I thought the aroma was complex, heh, the flavor takes on a whole new definition to the word. With notes of toffee, malts, yeast, caramel, figs, dark fruit, nut and wine. Extremely smooth and drinkable for 10.5%. Well worth the wait.

Dec 1, 2008 Dark chestnut and ruby pour. The head was almost tan. It was thick and rocky. Giving way slowly and producing nice lacing. The aroma was malt, toffee, nut raisin, chocolate, yeast and earth. The flavor was tart raisin, chocolate, malt and toffee. Some yeast too. Pleasant warming alcohol. Terrific mouthfeel. World Class.

Nov 30, 2008 This is the beer that got me into beer geekdom! A fantastic malty beer with lots of dark fruit flavors and aromas present. Poured this one into my Chimay goblet, and let it oxidize slightly to give off more complexity to the layers of flavor. Some nice ripe cherries, currants, plum, and a bit of spice hidden in there. At 10% this 750ml bottle is an excellent treat to be savored!
