New Beer Distributors, NY 330ml ($3): Pours a reddish brown with a small head. Aroma is dark fruit and booze, lots of booze. Taste is moderately sweet, full of fruit and stuff, and hits you with a little boozy (Lil Boosie) finish. Lacks complexity and drinkability. A big meh.

Sampled @ Haand beer festival 2012. Dark amber body with an off-white head. Nice aroma of dark malt, caramel and dry fruit. Flavor is sweet malty, dry fruit and warming alcohol. Full body and good aftertaste. Very nice.

Aroma is sweetish with strawberries and some caramel. Flavour is messy with lots of strawberries, some toffee and caramel. Not good.

33cl bottle pours clear copper with thin gold edges and small near white head. The aroma offers up a good deal of raisins and prunes as well as lesser amounts of cherries and sugary sweet smelling malts. The taste is similar with almost vibrant and almost tart raisins notes mixing with prunes and some cherries too. I also get some sweet malts and a mild molasses sense mixing with a lime fruit like sensation midway and into the finish. The somewhat tart lime like notes hang around with a touch of floral hops deep into the after taste. This seems to either be coming apart or not really coming together.

Draft. Hazy dark golden color, no head. Aroma of caramel. Taste starts as sweet butterscotch, then bittersweet finish. OK.

Bottle: Poured alight copper color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma consists of light residual sugar notes and dry caramel malt notes. Taste is quite simple with light residual notes of sugar with dry caramel malt and little else to report. Body is about average with OK carbonation and no apparent alcohol. A bit of a disappointment with no real complexity.

Clear orange pour, white head. Aroma of raisins, apricot and other dried fruits, malts, quite fruity hops. Rather sweet flavour, good malty background, raisins and slight port notes. Finish fruity, spicy and light bitter. Quite nice.
(From 33cL bottle @ Café Jos, Nijmegen)

Pour is a murky brown with a small white head. Aroma is caramel malts with lots of sugar. Flavor is the same. Thick caramel malt with a ton of sugar. Finish has a weird sourness. Its ok but way to sweet. No alcohol shows up. This brewer really likes to sweeten their beers.
