Appearance: Dark ruby/brown with a tan head about a finger thick. Aroma: Malty, dough, bready, honey with a hint of caramel. Taste: light bitterness with a medium sweetness and slight sourness. Palate: Light body, thin texture, slight carbonation, fairly harsh bitterness and quite astringent. The bitterness seemed to be balanced by the sweetness. Comments: Enjoyed this one, served in snifter and left glass lace.

Bottle at home. The colour is dark nut brown with a beige medium head. Sweet aroma of coffee, leather, brown sugar, caramel, cocoa and some licorice. The flavour has more chocolate, lactose, and roasted malt in the background with coffee and something reminiscent of Baileys liqueur. Has a smooth and slick mouth feel, and a light bitterness. A sweet ale but is balanced and tasteful.

330 ml bottle, bbd Jul 13. Pours a dark mahogany with brick red highlights at the edges. Small coffee colored head. Aromas of roasted malt, caramel, stewed plums and cocoa powder. Taste is initially dark fruit, before a firm roasted note and light hop bitterness comes through. Not getting any honey, although there’s some sweetness (a bit sticky) at the back end. Big body. Lingering finish. Good.

[330ml bottle from Westholme Stores] Black-brown with a large tan head and a light fizz. Coffee up front, then honey, chocolate, charcoal and a hint of health drink. Lovely relaxing late night beer maybe a little sweet and sticky by the end, but it does have the roast malt bitterness to balance. Lovely stuff.

Very dark ruby colour. Medium frothy brown head, quickly disappearing. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate.Taste very well ballanced medium to heavy bitter, medium sweet. , Nuts, smoke, hints of wood. Medium bitter finish.
