kempicus (145), Wellington, New Zealand Mar 20, 2008 caramel malt and slight hop on the nose, nice low carbonation and refreshing on the palate, very very dry finish.
weaselkenievil (217), Bedfordshire, England Jul 5, 2008 Dark gold kind of colour with slightly off white head. Finish is quite dry and bitter. Average, drinkable though. I’ve drunk a pint of Crystal though, the beer not the champagne. BeerGestapo (229), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 4, 2008 (England) Pours a nice hazy orange color with a med off white head. Aroma is of spices and citrus with a dry malty taste. The finish is slightly bitter and there is some nice lacing in the glass. Not bad at all, But i was hoping for a bit more here. chrismwpcs (66), South Hedland, Australia Jul 1, 2008 Erm well not bad I suppose? You could say it is a gutsy beer. I won’t (unusual) take the piss out of it as it is a pretty reasonable beverage that in my opinion is a one or two bottle drink and not a session beer. cellar (125), Dublin, Ireland Jul 1, 2008 Clear deep amber, nice lasting head, notes of fruit, caramalt, dried fruit, grains, yeast. Sweet and bitter in good balance, bitter aftertaste and unfortunately a littte metallic azlondon (455), Greater London, England Jun 30, 2008 Appearance: Brown. Nice amount of head. Golden brown.
