Sep 28, 2008 Pour is extremely dark brown, with a tinge of dark ruby when held to light. A nice, thick, tan head. Aroma is heavy...caramel, spices, alcohol, malts, and fruits. Flavor is also complex of caramel, fruits, malts, alcohol, and spices. Great on the palate, full bodied, smooth but then the finish is an alcoholic finish that I didn’t particularly like. I liked this brew to an extent but I wasn’t blown away by any awesomeness...just a decent brew.

Sep 28, 2008 Pours a dark brown color with a large lasting tan / off white head. The aroma is caramel, spice, malty sweet, sour cherries
very complex. Flavor is very much the same, caramel, spicy, malty, dark fruit (raisins), yeast, alcohol. This is a very complex beer to say the very least. This is an amazing brew, on a very short list of beers that actually stands up to the hype. I loved it!

Sep 27, 2008 11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a large lasting beige head. The aroma is caramel malt, fruity like you find in many Belgians, spices, moderate sweetness, and a hint of banana. The flavor is more sweet dark malts up front. Caramel, dark fruits (raisin, cherries), spices, biscuits, and some alcohol mix wonderfully throughout. This is definetly a standout beer. Complex and extremely drinkable.

Sep 25, 2008 unfiltered brown/red. no head what so ever. aromas are sweet/sour, cherries, cinnamon, caramel. Stone fruit flavors with a not too heavy sourness. Maybe a fig of fig. There is an efferensce about it.

Sep 25, 2008 Updated: Jan 29, 2009330 mL bottle purchased at Bruisin Ales. Poured a dark cola brown with a medium tan head. The aroma was spicy with yeast notes, dark fruits and alcohol. The flavor was fruity with warming alcohol and candied sugar. The palate was awesome. A warming mouthfeel from the alcohol, with a chewy feeling as well. Good carbonation and a medium/full body add to the enjoyment. This was a great beer.

Sep 24, 2008 Bottle pours opaque dark brown with a tan head that lingers during the whole glass and laces from top to bottom. Aroma is sweet, spicy, yeasty, and has a touch of alcohol to it. Flavor is amazing. Dark fruit, candi sugars, biscuit, yeast, and alcohol. Overall is a great brew.

Sep 21, 2008 Updated: Oct 1, 2008Black garnet hue; tight tan cream. Powerful aroma of warm, pungent spices and bright alcohols; biscuits, candied fruits and burnt, sugary malts all embrace. Toffee sweetness explodes into spices and a mild raisin acidity with a drying alcohol finish and jammy aftertaste. Fluffy mouthfeel—velvety in texture, pinpoint carbonation, weightless.
Light and dark, rich and delicate, an intoxicating interplay.
33 cl bottle, dated 2007, thanks Jukkabro.
