Bottle 500ml. Great malt-driven ale, with nice hop balance. Aromas of caramel, milky chocolate, biscuit, and a hint of grass. Taste is sweet, with light bitterness, and long length. Palate is creamy, with a medium body. Dark brown, with a frothy head.

Poured a dark brown color with a medium sized light-tan head. Aroma has lots of spices and some scotch. Also caramel malts and dark fruit. Taste is slightly creamy and smooth with interesting fruit flavors. A good amount of ginger in the taste as well. The finish is a tiny bit watery, but it is well balanced. Nice caramel aftertaste. Overall pretty good.

[500ml bottle, The Bottle, York] Pours a deep, clear red colour with a thing white head. Aromas of dark stone fruit, blackcurrants and some malty notes. Rich dark fruit at first on the taste – reminds me of Theakston’s Old Peculier – although the aftertaste washes away into weakness. With a bit more alcohol to pick things up at the end, this would be really, really good. As it is, it’s not that bad at the moment [19042011]

17 April 2011, bottle. dark amber, clear, no bubbles. nose is meaty with a lot of black current lozenges. med body and slightly watery. interesting flavour. black currant lozenges (minus the menthol), spicy (cinnamon?) and a malty medicinal tone. okay. more interesting on the nose than flavour. it is like a heavy session ale.

Flaske: Brun klar øl med et fint tyndt skumhoved. Duften er krydret med ingefær som den dominerende part. Smagen er meget ingefær. Virkelig overraskende og lækker. Godt afbalanceret.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear dark reddish brown with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, caramel and heavy spicy - ginger. Flavor is rather sweet and light bitter. sweet and spicy finish. Ginger is really dominating this, and I never liked ginger in my beer. Otherwise there is nothing wrong. 150910

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
A Madeira-style beer in flavor. And it almost looks like a Madeira: It is brownish-dark and cloudy. The aroma is spicy, but indefinable. Strange dry-sweet taste, very rich, but not as interesting and mysterious as the text on the label suggests, unless "mysterious" means "hard to comprehend" and "different, but not refreshing. " Technically not a bad beer, just a little ... diffuse.

Pours like a cola, medium-brown color with large-bubble carbonated head. Taste is notable - there is the usual brown sugar-molasses-malt, but mixed in is a light but distinct taste of licorice. The finish is long and smooth. A good beer for after dinner conversation.
