Aug 22, 2008 Bottle. Clear and dark.Opens with some maltinees which then turns to bitterness.The bitterness then dominates well into the aftertaste.Quite interesting.

Jun 6, 2008 Bottle. Hazy copper with a large off white head. Aromas are fudge and sweet toffee with citrus, dark syrup and bitter medicine. Flavours are malty with yeast and liquorice bitterness. Quite earthy with a bitter, dry finish. An odd beer, in that it is both quite tasty and thin.

Hazy amber with no head. Diacetyl, malt, full on butter and some wheat. Pretty lifeless in the mouth. FAIL.
