4.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Excellent stout for its price. Full flavoured, good long lasting head, clean, crisp and great dark appearance. The best.
1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Stout lite maybe. Pours dark with little head. Aroma toasted malt and no hop, tastes like it smells, but sweeter, quite sickly. On the positive side, does not have the DB brewed in five minutes ether finish.
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Low carbonation, very dark brown. Low roast flavor, slight crystal flavor. Sweet and sour finish.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tasted 15/02/2005. 330ml stubbie from Tupelo.
Pour an inky brown-black with tan lacing but little head (though the dodgy dark bar makes it difficult to fairly judge colour). Slight roasted malt and toasted 5 grain bread aroma. The light and fairly effervescent mouthfeel holds a simple sweet roasted malt flavour with liquorice and medium bitterness. Palate is reasonably clean - slightly bittersweet with some residual aniseed from the liquorice flavour.
Interesting kitsch label.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
i couldn't really get beyong the licorice allsorts flavour in this one. ridiculously sweet, boiled caramel lollies
1.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
one dimensional licorice allsort/milko sweetness. a bit of a fossil it seems. pretty cool disingenuous marketing.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
A poor excuse for a stout. Incredibly sweet, syrupy, and cloying with not even a hint of roasted malt flavours.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
not too bad for a stout
