Bottle: Poured a dark brown with a thick brown head. The nose is grassy and metallic. Taste is sweet grass with metal, subsides a bit to reveal dark plum and malts.

Pours amber with copper hues and tan head. The aroma is big fruitiness from prunes and dates and raisins and then a peppery note. The taste is similar with prunes, raisins and dates but adds a more fruity like plum juice and cranberry juice note. Nice stuff with pleasing fruitiness that doesn’t get too sweet or two odd. Dunedin? They still make beer?

Bottle shared by Joey at Dr. Bill’s tasting. Pours with a hazed brown hue with a small off-white head. Aromas are malty, light caramel and spicy with a phenolic, clove and pepper yeast presence. Flavors are rich, malty, lightly smokey with a bit of a belgian yeast pepper and spicy note. Medium bubbles. Quite tasty.
