Jun 24, 2009 Very strong hops flavor and bitterness with some malt. Pours a dark copper color with white head, and the aroma is very hoppy like that of a double ipa. This is a great beer if you like very hoppy and bitter brews.

Jun 21, 2009 Strong caramel aroma, hops a little skunk. Amber colour with a good frothy white head. Syrup like texture. Tangy bitter hop flavour. Sharp and cuts right to the palette. Grapefruit lingering around afterwards. Very tasty ale. Should have looked at the ABV. Wondered why I woke up with a wee hangover.

Jun 20, 2009 Now this is beer! Great looking and tasting beer. Deep flavors and a richness that is hard to find in a beer this strong.

Jun 13, 2009 2007, 22 oz bomber. Pours a clear, dark orange-brown colour with a cream coloured, frothy but quickly disappearing head. When I say quickly disappearing, I mean quick!! I turned my head for a minute and it was gone when I turned back around. Aroma of pine, malts, citrus, grapefruit, nuts, hops, caramel and alcohol. I started to smell the aroma before the cap was completely off. Flavour is the same as the aroma with a tangy sort of aftertaste.

Jun 12, 2009 Updated: Jun 13, 2009Pours a lovely dark brown with a small tan head that lingers. Aromas of alcohol, raisin, caramel and malt. Strong anise flavors. Very bitter. Burnt toffee and caramel. Medium body. Soft carbonation. I think I prefer regular bastard better.

May 29, 2009 Updated: Jun 14, 2009Bottle. I believe this is much better than the "normal" bastard. Smoother and even has a higher alcohol content. What big beers should be.
