Bottle. Deep amber color, the tiny white head disappears almost instantly. The aroma’s faint, of caramel, some nuts, perhaps some fruit if I was feeling more charitable. The taste is lightly bitter and watery, the finish somewhat dry. The palate is light/medium, the texture a bit watery. Carbonation is soft. Overall, this isn’t my idea of a winter warmer.

Bottle 500ml.

Clear medium amber colour with a small, fizzy and open, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, fruity nuts, nutty, dusty chocolate notes. Flavour is moderate to light heavy sweet and light moderate bitter with a average to long duration, nutty, caramel, malty. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20111211]
