Cloudy red - brown beer, good pale tan head. Pleasant nose of mild vanilla and fruits. Slightly dry palate. Creamy malt. Mild vanilla oak (is this barrel aged?). Repressed orange and red berry fruits. Finishes creamy. Thought this was an Imperial Red - very nice whatever it is.

750 ml. Hazy deep amber body. Frothy off-white head, slowly diminishing. Sweet aroma of raisin, cherry, caramel, alcohol with a backdrop of wood, brett and mustiness. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture and lively carbonation. Dark fruit in the taste is overrun with bitterness and some medicinal notes and hot alcohol in the finish. Wood and peat notes with some grapefruit hoppiness in the background. This beer grew on me the more I drank it.

Bottle thanks to bleeng at August tasting. Pours a cloudy amber with medium off white head leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is floral hop and pine resin. Medium mouthfeel with a bitter hop and grapefruit. A decent American strong ale.

Peach, pineapple, and oak nose with thistle accents, intensely wonderful! Murky brown, medium yellow head, good lacing. While the peach notes were stronger in the aroma, the flavor is dominated by oak with peaches underneath. Alcohol is a tad insistent, but not too terribly distracting. Good balance and strength. Very unique and defies classification, so ASA is entirely appropriate. Tastes pretty damned good too!

Bottle. Pours burgundy. Light tan head. Nose of dates, yeast, basement funk and cherry pits. Taste is bittering hops, malt, cherries, dates and yeast. Very bitter. Not really a Flanders Red, but a decent strong ale.
