Flaske. Flot dybrød øl med et fint lille skumhoved. Duften er kraftig maltet, som går over i smagen der også indeholder en smule frugt. Mere i stil med en doppelbock egentlig. Ikke så spændende.
1.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20
Red-brown coloured, small head. Aroma of roasted malts, liquorice, tar and port. Very, very bitter. Not my style, i wouldn't drink it again.
5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Pours a deeply hazed, amber caramel w/ a full creamy froth. Aromas of fruited flowers, caramel and leather. Big, viscous nectar w/ mellow residual effers, almost flat. Flavors are strong and rustic, including new leather, bitter caramel, toasted citrus rind, and tobacco. Finish is long and bittering. Overall: I was surprised and impressed. I love this stuff, awsome! Highly recommended.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: NOV 18, 2007 Dark amber/light brown color. Modest light tan head. Hops and malt aroma with hint of alcohol (like a cognac) and dark fruits. Early roast barley/coffee quickly followed by strong hops, then a warm alcohol finish (again, like a cognac).

Great aroma of mustiness and dare I say rain. Good amber color with a head that just won't quit. Full malty feel greets the mouth. Good sweetness that rounds out the taste and fades away. Certainly some spicy hops in the finish and aftertaste. Some chocolate and nuttyness in the palette. An excellent beer any way you look at it.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours the dark amber color we’ve come to know and love. Generous light tan foam head, dense foam and lasting. Color slightly clear. Aroma of medium-dark malt, sugars, caramel, and honey. Taste is mostly malty, a little bitter (slightly hoppy), and mdeium/thick. Slightly bitter finish, with a bitter-sweet malt aftertaste. Clearly premium pale malt like Halycon in this one.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
500 ml bottle. Red copper colour. Tall fluffy white head. Delicate malty and nutty aroma. Strong malty background. Distinct nutty flavours at first. Then a little more bitterness. Cocoa powder. Plums. Typical East Kent Goldings hops with a dry grassy flavour. Finish is dominated by hops and dry. Malts are very strong throughout with a distinct nutty maltiness and a light drying hoppy finish. Very characteristic, but I’m not entirely convinced by the slightly harsh edge of butter between malts and hops. But, still it is a wonderfully outstanding beer.
