Nov 8, 2006 One of the best tasting beers I’ve had, tried it by mistake, as I thought it was Guinness and I just ordered "what that guy is having" but I’m glad I did.

Nov 5, 2006 Had this one a long time ago but never rated it. Dark brown with a decent head.Sweet malty aroma. Molasses, licorice, roasted malts show through in the taste. Almost no hops detectable. Very smooth and delicious. Expensive but worth it.

Oct 28, 2006 Murky crimson pour with a healthy tan head. The nose is outstanding - buttery chocolates, milk chocolate and malt balls mingle with esthery fruits. Cherries and bananas seem to dominate, adding a third dimension to the already tempting nose. The body is silky smooth. Earthy and nutty malts dominate - but seem to thin out near the finish. This should be great on cask.

Oct 25, 2006 Bottle. Dark reddish, can smell the caramel even as you pour the beer. Just unique taste as the way through. Surprise sour taste at the end.

Oct 23, 2006 Picked this one up at the local grocery store. I had only seen this one a few times in the past, but over the last few months it has become much more available. Poured a very dark reddish color. Aroma is soft caramel and some citrus. Flavor is mellow but crisp, with some fruit. A nice toasy flavor comes in at the end. Hops are present but not overwhelming. A good beer!

Oct 16, 2006 Pours dark mahogany with a fluffy beige head. Aroma is very malty with some caramel, cream, and grapes. The mouthfeel and taste are silky smooth. A lot like an ESB in flavor, but without the astringent bitterness. There was some fruitiness, but more malt and sourdough-like bite. I really liked this one.
