Feb 21, 2009 My god I love it! it sounds like a European porn star name! male, of course. The aroma is this interesting blend of roasted toffee malt, and produce. Its flavor also comes off with an unusual taste. There’s a thin malt flavor with a at first, then a earthy vegetable feel. The black eyed peas add this weird little layer of complexity to the brew, which helps make this 8.5% brew go down really easily. The palate is pretty straightforward as well, smooth and ending with a tiny bit of chalky bitterness. Not surprising, another solid Victory beer.

Feb 18, 2009 Not too impressed. A very one sided beer - malty and sweet taste. Not much else going on. Surprisingly thin for the strength. Alcohol and dark fruit in the flavor. A little too sweet. Light carbonation. Needed something else.

Feb 11, 2009 Clear mahogany pour that created a tightly packed 1/2 inch latte head that reduced to a milky coating that floated atop the brew. Extremely spotty lacing. Aroma is brown sugar, molasses, chocolate, and dark fruit. Might even have a hint of soy in there. Flavor is dark toasted malt and caramel with a noticeably hoppy finish. Not a bad brew but not fantastic.

Feb 11, 2009 The aroma is nice with chocolate, toasted malt, and some dark fruit. The appearance is brown with an average sized head. The flavor is like the aroma with plenty of alcohol. The palate is a bit thin. Overall it’s a fine beer.

Feb 11, 2009 solid tasting beer. pour nice and smooth but not overall exciting in terms of color nor mouth feel. taste heavy of the caramel with lots of dark fruits. highly malty yet lacks anything totally outstanding. Still very good to drink.
