redgold07 (271), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Mar 20, 2008 Pours a dark nut brown color with a small white head. Aroma is of roasted coffee malt with caramel and spice. Flavor is absolutely delicious with notes of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, caramel, spice (coriander), alcohol, and slightly bitter. A little thin on the mouthfeel.
12 oz. bottle.

Info: 330ml bottle, 17/7-2008, 195/500 LilBeerDoctor (278), East Setauket, New York, USA Jul 17, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of raisin, dark fruits, brown sugar, very sweet. Flavor strongly of brown sugar, raisins. Thick mouthfeel. This beer is sweet but not oppressing, reminds me of a calmer/more complex/less intense DFH Raison D’extra. Quite good. fredandboboflo (277), East Setauket, New York, USA Jul 17, 2008 Bottle, best before June 2014. Aroma of earthy, dark fruits, the darkest of the dark, rich, sweet malt, richest of the rich. Flavor brings no surprises, continues its quest of decadence. Somehow manages to avoid becoming overly sweet, but it’s hanging right on the edge the whole time. A sipper, and a good one. Acknud (546), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA Jul 13, 2008 Dark brown pour with a small head. Nutty aroma. Sweet malt taste. Some bitterness. b33r (332), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Jul 10, 2008 Dark brown color with small tan head and no lacing. Aroma and flavor have strong malts and light chocolate and raisin notes. Good but expensive
