2007 version tasted 9/14/08

Three Philosophers 
poured a dark, reddish brown color with a small tan head.  The nose had hints of sweet fruit, and a rich malt.  The body has a taste of cherries, a little bit of sweetness and a rich, malty body.  The malts dull on the finish and there is a slight dryness.  The alchohol begins to show a bit more as the beer warms.  This is a great beer, rich and flavorful yet smooth enough to sip and savor.  Pair this with a chocolate desert or even a nice cigar.  One of my favorite beers in the entire state.

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
