Bottle at home ... from my Haul from fins ... deep brown ... big bubbly white head .. slight sour ... woody toffee nose ... little coffee roast malt .. not sourness in the body or flavour ... little toffee ... im tempted to say thin but that not right ... light is probably a better term ... and real tasty... little chocolate bitter in linger

Bottle that I picked up at Bellingers, Jet Garage, Grove, Nr Wantage, Oxon, consumed 10-03-10 Pours dark brown with a hint of red fireglow in there. The aroma is ever so slightly fruity but also with just a touch of a creamy edge. The head is large and off-white. This is nice and tangy in the mouth, its fruity and a little powdery?, touch of chocolate at the back of the mouth. I really enjoyed this and have to conclude it was far better than I was expecting.

Dark brown color. Mild, caramel-chocolatey brew, good bitterness, some roasted malt in the end, but also a shade of something wrong in the aroma.

Dark brown with a tan head. Nose of cola, asprin and a hint of sourness. Has an earthy brune flavour with subtle notes of coffee cocoa and fruit. Reminded me of a less complex Goudenband. Oddly thin at first but creamy on the way down. Hmmm?
