Aug 10, 2007 750 mL bottle from Jovi, served at cellar temp in a tulip glass. JL28/07.
App.: Deep brown-red-black, moderate light mocha head, clarity uncertain.
Aroma: Strong yeast and dough, a little tangy, some medium roasted malts, light sweet caramel, slightly fruity – some dark, dried fruits.
Palate: Medium body, very soft carbonation.
Flav.: Starts with plenty of yeast and dough, some sweet malty notes, lightly funky; more nutty, medium roasted malts on swallowing.
Light, clean and refreshing...interesting given the colour.

Aug 6, 2007 Didn’t really do much for me. Brown pour with a good-sized off-whtie head. Vinuous nose with licorice, cherries, and spice. Flat mouthfeel. Fruity, sweet, and spicy. Lots of grapes. It just felt as if somehting was missing.

Aug 3, 2007 Black/brown with a tan head. The aroma is spicy with notes of yeast and licorice. The flavour is sweetish, almost wheat like, spicy with notes of caramel, a bit of yeast and coriander and I sense the alcohol. It’s not nearly as powerful as I hoped it would be... 1870

Jul 30, 2007 bottle poured a chestnut brown in color with lively carbination and a one finger head that settled to a nice ring that stayed throughout. smell is chocolate malt, plumbs, alcohol, and light caramel. taste is malty with a nice carbination that makes it very refreshing. i have kept away from there beer from past tastes but this one is good, maybe a little underrated as well. may make me retry the others.
