Opaque garnet-brown body, medium coffee-creme head. Nose of layered chocolates, ashy coffee beans, roast, and alcohol. A face-smacking, palate-shocking sweet, ashy, vinous, chocolaty bomb of a beer, inky and leathery, with coffee bean and raisins. Sipping this took me back to the days of my first bottle of Dogfish Head Worldwide Stout. A must-try.

Deep tawny red-brown body, thin cream head. Tangy, sweet, syrupy nose, vinous with brown sugar. Super-sweet, intense body, with loads of brown sugar, grape, leathered fruit, and alcohol. Vinous and silky-smooth. An old ale that knows what it wants to be when it grows up.

Murky peach-apricot puree body, thin sudsy off-white head. Nose juicy, mostly orange, with papaya and passionfruit. Unsweetened orange juice dominates the flavor profile, bright, tannic, and rindy, with a relatively bitter finish. Creamy and full-bodied with very little sweetness. A substantial, well-crafted beer that would benefit from a little more in the way of residual sugar.
