Madsnp (102), Vinens Verden, Slotsgade, Denmark Mar 20, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown with a light brown lasting head. Not much aroma but some roasted coffee is to find. Tase is dry and sour with some roasted notes. I think this sample is infected, it dosn’t taste right. I’ve tasted it before and can’t recognize the taste.
bobinlondon (215), Harrow, Greater London, England Jul 8, 2008 Handpulled cask at JDW St. Albans. Brown/black with beige head. Very wholesome tasty brew with lovely roasted malts, chocolaty bitterness and a touch of port. Very morish. fordest (1655), Santee/San Diego, California, USA Jun 28, 2008 Labeled as O’Hanlon’s Ruby Stout. Shared at the Lost Abbey Angle’s Share Release. Roasted aromas as expected with hints of tartness. Tartness came through more in the flavor, but still never overtook the expected roasted and burnt malt flavors. Not too bad. azlondon (461), Greater London, England Jun 27, 2008 Appearance: Dark brown. Bit of nice head.
Aroma: Fruity, vinous. Burnt grain.
Taste: Vinous. Fruity. Burnt grain. Pretty bitter.
