Bottle from Market of Choice. Poured a light chestnut brown with a mild tan head. Aroma was sweet chocolate, yeast, caramel malt. Flavor very caramel malty with a distinct nuttiness and some raisin flavor. Pretty tasty, and I love the label design on this one.

Bottle into a trappist glass. The pour is brown muddy red (reminds of a dubbel) with a small creamy off-white head that fades to ring fast. The aroma is quite fruity and sweet with a hint of roast and citrus. The flavor is also sweet and fruity with a hint of citrus, but a dry roastiness and possibly even hoppiness is there at the end.

Bottle, Tesco. A big difference from the cask version and all the better aswell. Smooth, rich and fruity with a deep red appearance. Bitterness very evident but soft and tasty at the same time and an easy drinking 6.3% !

50cl bottle, dark brown glass. Beer color even darker brown, thin but sticky head. Intense aroma of toffee, stewed fruit and hint of coffee, taste is very sweet at first: Raisins, caramel, cocoa. 6.3 % abv are noticeable throughout. Bitter finish with coffee note. Medium mouthfeel. Rather complex, with long-lasting bitter aftertaste. Not bad, but for special occasiuons.

Bottle. Pours coppery brown with a thin white head and a bit of lacing. Aroma was malt, nuts, salt and a hint of coffee. Flavour was also nutty, as well as roasty, woody and a bit spicy, with a touch of caramel. Fairly thin in the mouth with a bitter finish, I was expecting more, but having said that, still pleasant enough and quite sessionable.
