3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle, Liquid Solutions. Appearance is that of coffee with alot of grounds floating around. Strong roasty aroma. Almost smells like a smoked. Lightly bitter roasted coffee flavor up front. A little bit of hop flavor. Burnt malty finish. A touch watery, but overall quite enjoyable.

picked up a 6-pack at MGM since i don’t recall seeing it there before. quickly diminishing head and virtually no lacing on its brown body. malt most notable in aroma and flavor, some coco notes as well. hint of hops in the finish rounds out this suprising nice brew.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Nice brown color,small tan head that had a short hang time then faded to leave a slight amount of lace behind but very slight.The aroma was malty and chocolatey with maybe a hint of caramel and also a bit of something coming through that seems sweet.The flavor was nothing special though.nice malty side with some chocolate and a slight bitter sweet thing going on but over all it’s not very thrilling and kind of a let down,thankfully this is the one and only i have in the house,so i need not be punished further.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Tasted 10/08/2006. 350ml bottle from Regional Wines and Spirits.
Deep chestnut with a short-lasting light tan head. Chunks of yeast like gold dust. Mild cocoa and coffee on the nose, cinnamon later. Dry and light in the mouth with a very light pithy bitterness and stonefruit on the palate. Discovered a week or two back (notes from then the same with a hint of ginger on nose, which I didn’t get this time). Wow - a lovely antipodean mild, super easy drinking.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a nice dark brown color. Aromas of nuts/chocolate/caramel. Flavor is nutty with a mild note of smoke/tobacco and some chocolate on the finish.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Brown colour, faint hoppy aromas. Small creamy head and mouthfeel creamy also. Slightly toasty tastes.
After reading the blurb, I agree. They must have added 1/3 Sparkling Ale, 1/3 Stout, 1/3 water!
NIce sessional winter beer though.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Caramel and malt aroma, mahogany, red at the edges, tiny toffee head, some lace. Smokey, almost tobacco flavoured, kilned malt. Medium bodied, notable for a such a low abv, moderately bitter. Very good example!
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Poured from the bottle a deep mahogany brown with barely any head. Wood-chippy aroma. Smooth and nutty flavor with just a twirl of a tart finish.
