Bottle. Creamy off-white excellent mostly lasting head. Brown-amber colour. Nutty and caramellic light malty aroma. Light bitter flavor. Caramellic notes. Moderate bitter average finish. Very nice vreamy palate. A little boring but nice.

Peculier Pub: Great color, dark amber, reds and pruples visible. Aroma not too strong, smells of fermentation, yeast, cooked malts, not much fruits. Taste is smooth but not overly complex.

Starts really sweet- caramel and bread crust, then get earthy and rustic. Very filling, but not something that I would want to consume again and again. Bottle at Lucky Liquors.

Poured from a 500ml, dark mahogony with large tan head. Nose of malt and figs, taste was smooth, towards the dry side. Overall good.

dark brown, purplish highlights when held to the sun, full beige head, lacy. nose is musty, earthy malt. trace of hops, sweet malt. first impression of the flavor is bitterness, some smoke, peat. medium bodied, clean finish. nice balance between sweet, earthy and bitter. an interesting offering, well worth trying. single bottle from binnys orland park.

Bottle, 50cl - Clear dark brown beer with a fine creamy head. Aroma is very sweet malty with hints of ripe fruits and caramel. Flavor is malty sweet with notes of fruits, nuts and spices. Full-bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Slightly unbalanced but a good English strong ale.

Bottle shared with Hophead22.. Pours red brown with lots of floaties (Tim poured me the ass end)... Not much to the aroma besides some caramel malt... Flavor was caramel with some ripe apples.
