Grand Tasting @ The Harlequin, Sheffield.
Pours hazy amber with a big, creamy, off-white head. Aroma is pure rye bread with that sour-bread tartness to it. Medium carbonation, fine dry mouthfeel. Flavour is much better and more complex than the aroma. Some honey, rye, sweetness, nuts and lightly vinious. Okay.

Jul 3, 2009 On tap at the Flying Saucer in KC. Pours a cloudy, mahogany colored body with a thick and dense, two-finger width, light tan head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice, thick and foamy lacing. Aroma is mild with some sweet, grainy malts and rye bread. Some soft spices and chocolates, dark fruits, and a light toasty caramel. Similar flavor. Sweet caramels and a light rye breadiness. Some dark fruits and prunes, chocolate, toasted toffee, and a light hop bitterness. Finishes sweet with a light spice, somewhat dry and moderately sweet and spiced bread aftertaste. Medium to full body. Overall, not bad at all, just not very exciting. Soft spicing and moderately sweet malts make this somewhat enjoyable.
