| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 27, 2007 Bottle. Pours a thick hazy brown color with a tan head. The beer has a very caramel and dark fruit aroma, heavy on the malts. The flavor is caramel, fruit, and something I just can’t put my finger on. The alcohol is noticeable. This beer is one of the more complex that I’ve had in recent months. Darkover (1317), Columbus, Ohio, USA
