Bottled at RBESG 2007. A brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt as well as light notes of prunes, leading to a dry woody finish. The body is thin.

2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottled at RBESG ’07. Dark brown, rich beige head. Fairly dry with roasty malt flavours and light bodied. Some herbal almost gingery notes before a finish with fairly low bitterness. It works, but only just.

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
500ml bottle from the brewery. Black beer with dark brown around the edges. Thick lasting beige head. Some choc/coffee and a bit of a chemical aroma. Bit thin in mouth and again some chemical flavours which mask the choc and roasted malt. Not sure this is supposed to be like this so I have posted a default score.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
2nd January 2008
Very light stout - more porter like. Tangy fruit with subtle smoke in the undertone. Dry minerally finish. Okay. If only Fallen Angel beers were as cheeky and fruity as their labels!
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottled. Black with hints of beige for a head. A clearly infected muddle. Sour notes and fruit. Nothing except the colour suggests stout. Nearly all the ratings here suggest infection. Must do better Fallen Angel. Tsk, tsk.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
UPDATED: APR 13, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle at RBESG.
Looks great, tastes awful. Thin and chemical with only some sweet chocolate worth talking about.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Black with no head. Aromas are dry roast malts wit sour berries. Slightly floral with some oatiness. Flavours are chocolate malts with a light roast character. Some smoky notes on the finish. Sour in a tainted bottled way - a common fault with Fallen Angel.
