12oz bottle pours a murky, caramel amber with some spitty head. Nose is heavy with port wine, sherry, wood, caramel, brown sugar, coconut. Flavor is sweet, apples, watery caramel flavoring, sherry, port, brandy, light wood, some orange. Medium bodied, watery finish. Well past it’s prime, but a unique beer at this point.

Bottle shared by IrishBoy. Pours dark brown with a transient tan head. Aromas of slightly sour dark fruits and chocolate with dark malt. Full bodied. Flavor is pretty much the aroma. It’s extremely delicious. Aged marvelously.

2004 bottle shared at the 6th annual Richmond Industry Gathering, 11/27/11. Pours a hazy copper color with nearly no head. Aroma of big toffee malts, stone fruits, cinnamon, spices and some oxidation notes, not surprisingly. Aroma of toffee, raisins, spices and bitter hops. Full bodied. Glad to finally try this.
