Heavy. Chocolate banana bread on the nose. Intense bitter chocolate on the palate.

From Davis Beer Shoppe. This is...powerful. 12% ABV, tastes like rum/bourbon, and will definitely put hair on your chest. *checks* Yep.

Raisin/dried-fruit smell. Somewhat of a salty-sweet raisin taste. Salt gets stronger over the course of the bottle.

Wow. It tastes like hard liquor. And not the good stuff. They talk a lot about wood on the label and I'm wondering how much wood alcohol it has.

Very mellow the third time around, combined with all the caramel complexity from before. I guess this brew really benefits from an extra month in the fridge.

Like a natural cherry cola but where the cherry's barely there but has the viscosity and concentrated sweet dark flavor of a not-very-sweet cola.

Brackish and black like an Imperial Stout, with an unexpected wood-sap sweetness and a fairly strong, high-alcohol woody finish. Compare to: Port Old Viscosity Ale.

As delicious as a kick in the pants can be.

Thick taste, sharp smell. 12% Abv, wow. Leaves me wanting water.
