| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Oct 26, 2009 This sucks! It’s only like 2% or something! Dark brown brew with minor lacing. Sweet aroma, too sweet actually, some form of coffee.. maybe. Terrible taste! Blood, weak everything, soooo watery. Probably the weakest tasting beer ever.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Sep 26, 2009 [275ml bottle from Pallant of Arundel] Pours black with chestnut hints and a swiftly dissipating brown head. It isn’t as fizzy as it looks on pouring - in fact, the slight prickle of carbonation is perfect to offset the thick, smooth texture. Light aroma of roasted malt. Taste of caramel, chocolate and malt. Definitely sweet (there’s not a hint of bitterness), but not to a sickly extent - I did keep thinking it would become sickly but it never did. Quite a well constructed beer, although I think you’ll enjoy it more if you think of it as a soft drink rather than a beer - it really doesn’t taste like beer at all! There’s just a hint of sourness in the finish which didn’t quite work, but otherwise I was quite happy with it. cgarvieuk (4178), Edinburgh, Scotland

| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Aug 1, 2009 At Chriso’s pre GBBF Shindig ’09. Very dark brown with a beige head. Sour buttery aroma. Intensely sweet cardboard taste, like eating the Crunchy Nut cereal box. I wonder who buys this curious beverage. Does anyone buy it twice? oh6gdx (8838), Vasa, Finland

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 28, 2009 Bottle from the brewery shop had at home. Alround rating: Sweet roasty candy sugar like malt, small chocolate character, the metallic edge of the pasturisation adds a dryness that actually works, but isnt good to feel.
