3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Me and the missus got this at the brewery several years ago and we sat on it for some reason. Not exactly sure why, but it’s the oldest brew I had in my "cellar" (a box in my daughter’s room). murky orange-brown sludgy pour with a slight white ring. aroma is soft peach, caramel, cherry. tastes are dried fruit, the currants, lightly tart, buttery, berries, raisins. soft carbonation. based on the recent ratings I wasn’t expecting much, but it was a fun sipper.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
3rd November 2010
Cloudy pink brown beer, no real head. Not pretty! Dry palate. Woody dryness with mild tart blackcurrant. Mild lactose like sweetness in the undertone. Semi dry finish. A slightly odd beer - ugly as hell but with a pleasant blackcurrant that avoids being too acidic.

Thanks to mday for opening this bottle. Served in a snifter.
Pours near purple and it is quite cloudy. No real head or lacing. Maybe a bubble or two on top. The nose is a bit herbal and fruity with a bit of the fruit coming through. The taste is slightly sweet with a bit of an astringency. The fruit doesn’t really come through. The finish is really quite dry on a fairly-light body for what it is. Slight vitamin character on the finish. Overall, decent enough but I’m guessing this has seen better days.
