Aug 30, 2008 22 oz bottle (I still have one in waiting). Pours a very dark brown with a thin tan head. Heavy caramel malt aroma, with raisins and other dark fruit in there as well as yeast and some spices. Good flavor. It has a little bit of an aftertaste and lingers in your mouth. Still good. Some serious stuff.

Aug 19, 2008 22 oz bottle tasted around the 777 release date. Big caramely malty nose blended with a bit of cherry notes and a bit of semi-sweet chocolate. The flavor is a lot of the same, yet so mellow after 2 yrs and quite well blended together with the age. The chestnutty flavor comes out a bit in the body, but is mainly swept over throughout by big sweet malts. A tiny hop presence was still traceable. Definitely remember enjoying this one slowly...meaning, I loved it!

Aug 12, 2008 May 27, 2005 I lost my password and this was my rating so
Well this is my first rating and I think I picked a good one. I am new at the whole "palate" thing So I will say it has a lime flavor, nice dark amber color. It has this sense stimulating the outside edges of my tongue and sneaking into my stomach in a nice way. Lots of bubbles. Hey, my writing improves as I get the closer to the end of the bottle.

Aug 7, 2008 Bottle at Stone Bistro. Pours a golden brown with a lacing tan head. Smooth caramel and fruity aroma. Flavour too is smoothly mixed caramel and fruity hops. Lingering into the finish with a fruity mild flavour.

Bottle at Stone. Pours a clear reddish copper color, with a fuzzy white head, and wet dripping lacing. Aroma is fairly hoppy, lots of floral notes with caramel and slight vanilla. Sweet malts in the flavor, vanilla, some hops, citrus, molasses, and what could be bread in the finish. Nice medium-body, easy to drink, and has aged well in three years.

Jul 30, 2008 On tap during Stone Fest (Feb, ’08): This poured a deep/dirty orange/brown in color. Aromas and flavors were of orange peel, spice, caramel and chocolate. This was medium-bodied with nice richness and quite smooth.
