3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
500ml bottle - 4.8% vol. Brewed September 2066, Drunk June 2007.
Pours a dark amber, with a decent head that subsides gradually. Good smoky aroma and a strong, rich malt taste, also with smoky hints. A bit musty - I did rather over-age it - but a nice long bitter aftertaste. Worthy trying if you can find it.

Cask conditioned handpump Prince George Brighton. A hazy brown coloured beer with a whitish ring of bubbles. Chocolate and orange notes throughout. Good alcohol depth. Fruity malts. Surprisingly good flavours from a brewery which is usually well dodgy. I liked this.

2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
50cl bottle from the Home Brew Shop, Aldershot. As usual with Fallen Angel this poured cloudy, even with careful handling; the colour is amber with a billowing white head; yeasty aroma; yeasty flavour with some sour fruit; and some toffee towards the finish. Not very pleasant.

A BBE Dec 07 bottle that has been stored cool and dark. Cloudy brown beer, lively pale tan head that quickly dies away. Crisp dry beer with a Belgian like sour tang, Quite drinkable but hardly an ESB!

2.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dover Beer Fest 2007. A gentle brew which promises to be good when fully fermented. At the moment it tastes like a young, sugary, slightly inept, home brew.
