A mahogany brown verging on black. The aroma is sweet stone fruits and caramel. Light bodied and a bit boozy. The taste is caramel, plums, sweet with heat. Very nice.

Bottle, shared at my 10K rating celebration. Tart nose, cherry, chocolate, wood, some licorice. Black, cloudy, with lace. Great fruity flavor, berries, cherries, vanilla, booze. silky and light with low carbonation and just a bit too boozy. Much better than the silver wax version.

Bottle purchased from LetsPour. Pours a deep ruby black with a small tan head that dissipates quickly leaving decent lacing. Aroma is very nice - bourbon, vanilla, oak, chocolate, dark sugars. Flavor is medium sweett, light bitter, oak, bourbon, chocolate, sugars, a bit of metal. Does not live up to the promise of the aroma. Medium body.

Bottle from Pear Delicatessen & Shoppe, Seattle
Dark brown color; the head is short lived. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, tobacco, vanilla, spirit. Lean body, but rounder than the Terror in the Wood; good caramel flavor, moderate sweetness, some chocolate, and nice spirit barrel presence.
Very nice.

22 oz. bottle, courtesy of fiulijn (thanks a lot, Alex), pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is very confused and full of many different things, with notes of rye whiskey, dark fruits and very subtle tartness. Flavour brings out rye whiskey barrels upfront, a little roast, and slight caramel. Better than the "in the Wood" version of this -- doesn't have the tartness on the flavour. Decent stuff, just nothing overly special.
