| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 3, 2008 Bottle of the ’05. Pours a distinctly cloudy orange with a tall white head. The aroma is surprisingly fruity with pineapple, some brandy, licorice, some kind of cream or something. It’s pretty unique but very balanced and assertive. Palate is pretty heavy with loads of fruit flavor. Mellow citrus is noticed first and a slow transition to darker vinous notes occurs. The finish is juicy and sweet with a grainy quality accompanied by berries, maybe apple. This is actually quite tasteful and a bold treat. Gethinbeer (1031), Nova Scotia, Canada

Merky amber appearance with a thin lace that sticks to the end. Smooth texture. Fruit flavour, liquorice. Very tasty indeed for the alcohol content. Very enjoyable beer. zappafan99 (463), Ascension Island
