Oct 15, 2007 Strong ale for sure. Knocked my socks off after a few sips. Alcohol easily detected in taste. Tried swigging a few mouthfuls but much better sipped. Heavy feel. I liked it, but not as much as I thought I would.

Oct 14, 2007 750 ml bottle. Poured a dust-storm brown with plenty of cloudiness. The head was decent and just a little orange off-white. ABV isn’t noticeable in the aroma. Light and yeasty smell that’s surprisingly mellow. Citrus smell is most similar to grapefruit. ABV is noticeable in the taste. Strong yeasty and bitter citrus flavor with some spicy licorice too. The beer also has an intense floral flavor. I’m not able to drink this beer in mouthfuls; this beer must be sipped. The flavor is a little too intense. The abv also stands out. On the plus, one bottle and I’m good for a nap.

Oct 14, 2007 750ml bottle from Bevmo. Pours a nice cloudy copper color with a short lived off white head, that had minimal lacing. The aroma was strong with spices, malts, alcohol and dried plums. The flavor was dominated by a distinct, and distracting, hard alcohol taste. Other flavors in the background were caramel, malts, and toffee. I am unable to evaluate the hops as the alcohol taste keeps getting in the way. The mouthfeel is full and satisfying. The finish is long with a big alcohol burn. Overall: This brewer really must find a way to hide the alcohol better. Not recommended.
