2002 vintage. Off-white frothy head that lasts some time. Almost black color. Aroma has pepper, cream and tropical fruit. Full bodied. Roasted malt flavor with tropical fruit, coffee, cream and some alcohol. Re-rate 2004 vintage. Malty aroma, slightly roasted and with trpoical fruit. Full bodied, almost thick. Sweet, malty roasted flavor with a hint of smoke. Hoppy with pineapple. Pepper. The alcohol is there, but well hidden. Power and complexity. Good quality beer.
