Bottle. dark amber with a decent, off-white head. Sweet, caramel, nuts and fruit cake, leading to a moderately bitter finish with a touch of citrus hop. Ok.

Draught at Rattl ’N’ Hum, NYC
Creamy off-white head with a clear amber body. Lightly caramel, sweet aroma. Heavily bitter, moderately sweet flavour: unbalanced. Not bad, but not very pleasing. The bitterness lasts very long and is almost annoying.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours transparent copper with one finger off-white head that dissapates quickly. Little lacing, medium/light body, a little rough texture, and spicy aroma. Taste is caramel malt, some spice, and a light bitter hop finish.

0.355l bottle from myBrewerytap. Pours a clear just lovely looking deep mahogany/chest nut-brown body with a small quickly sidesticking beige head. Nice sweet aroma with chocolate, cocoa, tons of malt sweetness, red fruits and more subtle hints of cardboard and perhaps even some alcohol. It has a light oily texture - surprisingly thin actually, and a average carbonation level. Not too sweet in the flavor, though it's quite malty and caramelly. Sweet biscuits with a herbal influence and some nutty hints. Finish and aftertaste is like after you have swallowed cold, burned coffee - just in a good way. Really well camouflaged alcohol. Interesting enough this one. Light drinkable as well, but for me, a bit to light-bodied to be a proper winter beer. More like a pre-spring beer. 22.02.2012

Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours amber with a creamy beige head. Aroma is toasted malt with a celery hint. Med body. Flavor is malty with some floral/herb hop notes. Goes a bit gummy, and the finish is towards dry. Bitter, but not very.
