Jul 4, 2008 Bottle. HUGE thick, creamy light tan head with a dark brown/black body. Aroma of raisins, alcohol, and prunes. Flavor is very rich and not as raisiny as the aroma. Still, it is dominated by dark fruits along with coffee, roasted malt, apple, pear, and candi sugar in the background. Awesome palate--very smooth and creamy. Complex and well constructed, my only fault with it is that I’m not a super fan of raisin/dark fruits (which isn’t a fault, just a personal preference). Very enjoyable though. I had this back-to-back with the Pannepeut and enjoyed the flavors of the Pannepeut better but found the palate of the Pannepot to be much superior.

Jul 2, 2008 2006 bottle at Ebenezer Kezars of Lovell, ME. Nearly opaque chestnut brown pour with a medium head that fades quickly. Very spicy aroma with notes of cinnamon, allspice and bitter chocolate. Taste is the same spices, rum soaked raisins, cocoa powder. Slight nuttiness and alcohol warmth. Sweet, thick mouthfeel.

Jun 30, 2008 Nice brownish pour with decent head. Nice aromas, layered and complex fruit notes are evident with plums, berries and a wheaty yeasty booziness. Elegant, almost velvety texture is quite nice and the taste yields a nice toasty fruit quality. Chocolate, raisin, peaches and deeper toasted nut flavors are there as well, there are a lot of flavors developing. A tasty, complex and elegant brew.

Jun 26, 2008 A big of a gusher. Dark pit fruits. Carmels, nuts. A bit of anise. Nice feel, slightly creamy. Not a lot sweetness or hops just layers of malts with a bit of mineral feel and flavor.

Jun 25, 2008 Bottle. Very dark color, with a small brown head that disappears quickly. An aroma of caramel. a full body. Nice
joohefner (380), Isla Vista, California, USA
Jun 24, 2008 Pours a burnt sienna color and a silky, dense khaki colored head. Complicated mix of aromas: Sweet chocolate, licorice, allspice, raisins, and a slight roast wood note. Thick, smooth body. Initial taste of chocolate liqueur and dark fruits, followed by the spice mix and pralines. Nice and complicated, but its a very rich beer that needs to be enjoyed slowly.
