on tap @ papago...
dark copper-y brown colored pour with a creamy light tan head. the foam seems pretty determined to stick around and also leaves a bunch of drippy lacing behind.
very sweet smelling with brown sugar, a touch of pale molasses, spicy cardamon like earthiness, orange and other sweet fruits.
the palate is very brown sugar sweet... normally a bad thing but in this case spiciness and alcohol clean it up quite well enough. pumpkin pie spice numbs the tongue after flavors of molasses, malt and raisins pass by. the finish strikes me as soapy since ginger too often doesn't translate well.
medium body is kept from becoming sticky with help from spice overload and alcohol's presence.
too sweet but not bad...6/3.5/6/3/14/3.3

A- Half-inch bubbly head, dark amber/brown beer. Mediocre head retention and lacing.
S- Faint spices. Not getting much from the nose (due to age?).
T- Woo. Sweet, honey. Well hidden alcohol. Some spices, little hops.
M- Smooth, creamy. Nice carbonation still.
D/O- I actually really liked this. TATURBO supplied this out of his cellar after being there for who knows how long. Very sweet. Never heard or seen this one before. Thanks Chris!
