Bottle (from Bitter Virtue). Dark colour. Yeasty mustyness and lightly roasted malt with berries. Fairly dry with a little acidity in the finish. This was alright but had a few rough edges that didnt seem quite right.

[review from 2007, bottle from bitter virtue, Southampton sweet smelling black-brown ale with rich creamy foam. Bitter-sweet with subtle hops and honey flavours. Noticeable alcohol but mild on the bitterness front.

Bottled. A dark brown beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma has strong notes of toffee as well as medium notes of malt and fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and spices as well as lighter notes of roasted malt, leading to a lightly roasted finish.

Warning! Early amateur rating! A very dark ale brewed with honey. Crisp and malty with a minerally zing. Not bitter but not sweet either. Very drinkable. Nice label! Here kitty kitty!

Bottle 50 cl. Clear dark brown with an orange hue and a beige head. Lightly tart and fruity nose. Quite full-bodied with dried fruit and hard roasted malt - and a Belgian yeastiness... Has a warming alcohol in the finish. Quite enticing - sorta like a Belgian Dubbel! 190110

Bottle at The Penguin Beer Bobbing/13 Beers of Halloween tasting (6.1%). Easily the best conditioned beer of the evening; thick creamy tan over mahogany, lacing all the way. Butter, fresh raspberry, blackcurrant and plum in the aroma. Proper balsamic zing of sour; more blackcurrant, Flemish cherry and caramel, hint of roast. Utterly baffling, and bordering on the undrinkable. If it’s intentionally soured, it’s balanced and brilliant. But it isn’t.

Bottle. Dark and poured with a medium head.Slight acidity and quite earthy.Better bottled than some of their other beers. Unusual label and quite an interesting beer.

Bottle. Black with a thin head. Aromas are chocolate and earthy notes with sour berries. Yeasty and musty. Flavours are sour dark berries with dark chocolate. Some light earthiness. Another poorly bottled Fallen Angel.
