Bottle. This was a fantastic beer! Great hops and some fruits (not sure what). Just grabbed this off the shelf and it turned out to be a gem!

Jan 7, 2009 pours amber - ruby with beige head.
Aroma is fruity - cherry and almost strawberry like with decent malty nose.
Taste is thick and fruity with some spices. Caramel malts with light chocolate - tofee - undertones.
Mlalts remain dominant with barley. Brown sugar mouthfeel with some dry prunes-plums with a light bitter hoppy finish.

Jan 6, 2009 Bottle. A murky, amber brown pour with a thin head. Light aroma of malt, plum and alcohol. Much fuller flavor; starts sweet and fruity but finishes with a lot of piney hop flavor.

Jan 5, 2009 Sampled at the Second Cellar Reduction. Pours a near opaque reddish brown with wispy khaki head. Nose of raisin and plum, vanilla, and oak, and the slightest twinge of alcohol. Flavor is nice and dark fruity, slightly bitter hoppiness, tannins, white grapes, caramel, some warming, but no real alcohol flavor. Nice and smooth and semi-syrupy. bitter lingering finish.
