Mar 16, 2008 Bottle. Pours a deep clear ruby-brown, with an off-white head that fades swiftly. Aroma of faint fruity malt and toffee. Fruity hints throughout the malt that washes over your tongue. Light in body, though not overly carbonated. Ends with a strange bitterness. Good, though hard to put a finger on some of the flavors.

Mar 15, 2008 Solid dark ale. Somewhat sweet with only a moderate bitterness. I really liked this one, but strong and malty enough that I wont drink more than a bottle in a sitting.

Mar 10, 2008 Dark brown in color. Not much head when poured properly, however it is golden brown in color. A roasted aroma with a hint of fruit predicts its taste of a sweet the slightly bitter beer.

Feb 27, 2008 Dark pour, but not black. Nice tan head to start, but it quickly diminished. Not much flavor to this if cold, but as it warms, more and more flavor comes out. Didn’t notice a bitter taste at all - maybe I’m immune. Slight taste of banana and molasses, smell of toffee, but oddly didn’t notice it. Great Ale.

Feb 21, 2008 Bottle at home. Dark brown colour. Nice head. Roasty caramel aroma. Toffee and chocolate flavour. Nice and dark, buttery and smooth. But also fruity, including bananas, and prickly. With a bitter aftertaste. Enjoyable.

Feb 18, 2008 500ml bottle, BB 30 APR 08...in date for a change! Deep brown body, dense tan collar. Earthy aroma, some mollasses and wood, bread and dark fruit, oddly enticing. Quite richly bodied, carbonation is low, has a syrup texture that is somehow suiting. Big malt presence, some roasted, some nuts, some toffee, brown sugar, all balanced with rum-like oak nuances and banana bread, with still more tropical fruits seemlingly lingering as it warms. Deeply complex, intriguing and satisfying. A very nice treat!

Feb 17, 2008 Bottle. Dark ruby color with a thick, frothy, mostly diminishing off-white head. Caramel, dark bread, and yeasty aroma. Bready, slightly fruity flavor, a touch of toffee, and a nutty bitter finish. Medium to full body with a bit of a juiciness to it.
