| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 23, 2006 Dispointed here. Aroma gives seriously toffee malts, some dark fruits also. Taste is similar sweetish. I get the vinus near balsalmic tones also. However whatever would posses the brewer not to make this bottle conditioned is behond me. So much potentional, however such an average beer. yngwie (4970), Kristiansand, Norway
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 14, 2006 Bottled. Deep mahogani color with a nice beige head. No carbonation. Sweet aroma with prunes and raisins, some vanilla, and a hint of alcohol in the background. It has a rich, sweet, fruity-bitter and caramelized flavor, that finishes of lightly dry and bitter. Medium, sweet body. Unfortunately, the flavor don’t follow up the promising aroma. ) gunnfryd (3585), Kristiansand, Norway

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 9, 2006 Very "English" tasting, with a slight diacetyl aftertaste. Beautiful soft carbonation, allowing the ingredients to shine through. Just a tad watery, since I like more body in an old ale. Hard to describe flavors, caramel, banana, bitter orange peel, bouquet garni. Unique.
