3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20RBESG Sheffield 2009. Handpump at The Star Inn Summer Beer Festival, Huddersfield. Deep dark brown to black colour, creamy light beige head. Aroma of pure vanilla and a bit of chocolate, some roasted malts and light coffee. Flavour has the same characteristics, with sweet vanilla the most prominent feature. Very nice, just a bit thin, flat carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
A bit to fizzy in bottle. Nice vanilla aroma. Balanced in taste but to much carbonation. Mouthfeel bad.

UPDATED: JAN 20, 2013 Fantastic! Pours to give a deep head, and a bit of treacley aroma. Carbonation medium to give an easy to drink pint. Flavors begin with toasted rye bread, and break into bourbon vanilla and smooth chocolate. Ends with clean bitterness.

Bottle. Dark brown with a thin tan head. Nose is light chocolate and lots of vanilla. In the mouth, there’s a bitter hit which is slowly and softly taken over by vanilla tastes. Leaves the mouth tasting like a Milka-bar has melted in there. Nice!

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
50cl bottle, BB 08/2013.
Brune claire, col fin beige.
Arôme est subtile avec un bouquet ravissant de gousse de vanille, note malté noisette, café grillé. Un vrai régal.
Palais est léger, malté grillé, finement chocolaté et torréfié qui alterne avec ce côté vanillé très onctueux. Belle effervescence, un peu sèche et grains et une amertume qui reste discrète apportant juste une fine note citronnée.
Une autre preuve que l’on peu brasser du très bon avec une bière sous les 5%.
