"This is a dark reddish beer with plenty of brown hints, and a thin tan coloured head. The aroma is a plethora of beery goodness with hints of caramel malt, dark fruit, and alcohol. The flavour is just as tasty with all flavours coming through and leaving a nice bitter finish. "

[2] Review by cyrenaica from Milton, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (12/20/2007 11:16:49 PM)
"330ml bottle
8.0% ABV
I tried this beer on December 20, 2007 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a dark brown into the Trappist chalice with a huge tan head that lasts throughout the beer, getting rocky as it slowly dissipates. The aroma is a mixture of yeast, malt and fruit such as plums. The mouthfeel was highly carbonated and full-bodied. The flavour was malt, with some hop bitterness."

[3] Review by jde123 from Philadelphia, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/4/2007 6:39:53 PM)
"Wonderfully aromatic pour, huge, frothy white head, very nice, and much too long in coming. Color is a muddy, turbid brown, got some sediment in there. Flavor is darkly strong, but very good in terms of caramel content - i.e., not too sweet. Long finish, twisting aftertaste, wonderful!"

[5] Review by pksmith from anniston, AL, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/31/2006 11:35:55 PM)
"Poured a ruby red with a mountainous, nay, damn near volcanic, off white rocky head that hung around for the entire time. Mouthfeel, maybe because of the head, seemed a bit "creamy." Aroma was of dark fruits, maybe figs? Cherries? Flavor was matched by the aroma. Dark fruits, maybe some candi sugar, malt. Well balanced, but not my favorite."
