1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Poured a dark mahogany with zero life. The flavour was flat, lifeless, a little like syrup but not in a nice way. Not nice to drink at all.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
Dark brown with a red tint and a disappearing, white head. Smells of caramel, liquorish, Unfermented wart. Light thin body. Tastes of cola syrup, caramel and malt. Nice and simple, yet very enjoyable.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle @ tasting. Aroma has some sharp roast, malt, caramel and some bready note. Flavour has caramel, wort, some roast. Very nice for the abv.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle shared. Pours clear reddish brown with a small ring tan head. Aroma of malt, caramel, wort and water. Flavour light to moderate sweet and bitter. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Very nice for the low ABV.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Sampled from bottle @ Deanso. Almost clear ruby red color, no head. Smell and taste malts, weirdness and shoes. Some fruits and wort as well. More flavor than I expected from a 1% ABV beer. Low body, thin texture, low carbonation.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle @ ABCbeers tasting. Clear brown pour. Aroma of dark malts, brown sugar and varnished wooden tables that have been in a pub for ages. Flavor is watery, spicy and woody.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
bottle shared @ABCBeers Ratebeer tasting.
Thin white head. Clear burgundy pour. Malty taste. Pretty nice for a 1% beer.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours clear dark brown with off-white thin head. Nose is stale coffee, dry coffee beans, sweet English malt. Taste is light flavoured. Bit of dry coffee on tongue, roasted notes, touch of ale fruitiness. Little depth. Watery.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
A sweet, malty beer, lightly hopped and of medium body. Sweet malt-loaf aroma and taste. Similar to the Old Ale on which it is apparently based, but lacking the aromas and flavours that usually come with the alcohol content. Good for an (almost) alcohol -free beer and one of two or three I would choose to drink again, good value at 75 p a bottle.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Decent for a low alcohol beer, good balance, tastes normalish - pretty good effort.
