| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 4, 2007 Pour is a bright orange with a big white head with lots of floaties. Aroma is fruity and almost like wine with some malts and candi sugar. Flavor is super vinegar and bitter with lots of dark fruit and some mustyness. Kind reminds me of a red wine. Tasty especially if you like you beer tart and sour. maeib (4710), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 3, 2007 Bottled. An amber coloured headless beer. The aroma is fruity and has a hint of alcohol. The taste is very bitter after a sweet soapiness. Pretty wierd and mixed up really. Not sure what to make of it. berkshirejohn (1802), Bracknell, Berkshire, England
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 29, 2007 Bottle conditioned. Very lively with lots of sediment, but poured a crystal clear caramel colour with a loose white head; yeasty aroma; malty body with heavy carbonation, some fruit; full and well-balanced finish with moderate bitterness.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 26, 2007 Bottle. Very high creamy and long lasting off-white head. Beautiful clear copper body. Lighly hopped barley malt aroma with a hint of spices. Heavyly carbonated but again only with little hops bitterness. gnoff (3568), Göteborg, Sweden
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 24, 2007 (50 cl bottle from Systembolaget) Clear dark brown color, tan head. Sweet malty and sticky caramel scent. Strong alcohol taste, some burnt malt. A bit spritzy mouthfeel, medium bitterness. onlyrocknroll (219), Cork, Ireland
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 24, 2007 Updated: Apr 25, 2007The aroma is malty with some alcohol but lacks potency. Quite subtle flavours, sweet with caramel notes. Surprisingly understated for its strength, could use a bit more character, but still a nice beer though. raymondwave (870), Finland
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 22, 2007 Copperish color, huge head even tho I poured gently. Couldn’t detect much of the nose. A bit sweet and fruity, maybe marmalade. Exploding carb and full creamy mouthfeel (you gotta love the bottle conditioned). Malts, marmalade, fruits, a little earl gray maybe, not much bitterness and not too sweet. I really liked this. Alcohol did not push thru. blueduk (118), Eugene, Oregon, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Apr 21, 2007 Pours clear reddish-brown with a medium bone-white foamy head.
Aroma of fresh fruit (pear, melon, strawberry?). Hint of lemon-lime, but not a big hop nose.
Wow, this is very sweet. Damn near cloying. Full-bodied and malty. Toffee, nutty, with dates or figs or something. Like a nut-brown ale on a sugar high. There’s a little acidity toward the end that drys things out, but no bitterness to speak of.
Not sure quite what to make of this.
