duff (5407), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Jun 10, 2005 Bottle. Ruby brown colour. Dry wholemeal crackers. Toffee and berries are the main flavours, finishes dry, with some earthy hop bitterness, i thought i may have liked this better, but it felt a little bit empty. Bov (4659), Bienne, Switzerland Jun 4, 2002 reddish-brown colour, few head, deep nutty aroma, with a touch of licorice, medium-bodied, the flavour lacks a little bit of character, long nutty finish
