Clean amber color. Candy caramel aroma. Caramel flavor, moderately sweet, moderate depth of malts, some burnt sugar in the final roasted nuts.
Clean, quite good.

12 oz. bottle, pours a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out caramel, bready malt, and a touch of brown sugar. Flavour is along the same lines, with bready malt, caramel and light brown sugar. Finishes on notes of toffee, with moderate sweetness. Very light on the palate despite all this. Nice stuff.

Bottle - Lots of sticky toffee with a hint of cooked orange, clear copper with a small off white head. Sweet toffee, light marzipan and some orange. Rich and quite nice, although a touch on the sweet side.

355ml bottle. Pours a clear red-amber with a small, short lived, beige head that fully dissipates. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, dried fruit and alcohol. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, dark fruit, molasses, brown sugar and light spice with a dry, warming alcohol finish. Medium to full body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Nice.

From Jan 2008
I got this bottle in a trade with leftmindedrighty. Thanks Aaron!
This one pours from 12oz bottle a clear deep amber/brown with about a 1" layer of foam after a careful pour. There's some nice lacing and the foam is receding ever so slowly.
The smell is not shy at all. Lots of caramel malt along with some dark fruit and notes of whiskey.
The taste on first sip and the malt and dark fruit is there in abundance but whoah, so is the alcohol. Lots of warming during and after the swallow. Smaller sips are in order here. ;^)
Further sips in and the whiskey smell I noted is in the taste as well and it's pretty darned nice. I don't believe I've had an example of the style quite like this. Oh, and in the background and somewhat subdued is some chocolate goodness.
It has a thick body and it finishes with some hoppy zest that somewhat balances the sweetness from the malt. Interesting brew but I *know* I couldn't drink more than 1 at a sitting.

Pours a coppery brown from a bottle, very little head which quickly dissipates. Big caramel, toffee aroma, some vanilla added in the flavor. Too sweet and syrupy for me. Good beer.

12 oz bottle purchased at the Beer Shoppe, Adrmore, PA. Best before 9/2015 ticked on the side of label.Thin head retention that died after a minute on top a deep ruby color. The aroma is sweet caramel, light pear, burnt brown sugar and a light fruit note.
Flavor is right with the nose with a lot of caramelized toffee/ caramel leading into a mild peat hint in the finish. Alcohol is also here but not overwhelming or distracting. Light dark fruit as it warms up. Body is fuller side of medium with a lower Co2 level. Pretty well made.
