Apr 9, 2008 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, blankboy, jerc, mabel & tupalev - my bottle. Ruby-brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of roasty malt with a bit of fruit and caramel, some tobacco - a little stale, but still nice. Medium bodied. Flavour of sweet roast malt with a mild nuttiness and a quick, nicely hopped finish.

Apr 9, 2008 Bottle (650ml) shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, jerc, mabel & tupalev -- courtesy of GregClow. Pours a hazy orange-copper with an average size diminishing off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, nuts, some fruit and faint hops. Flavour’s a bit watery, malty, a bit nutty and with a light bitter finish. Average bodied. Nothing special but nothing bad either, I enjoyed it.
