Oct 5, 2007 Bottle from Kris wines. Brownish with an off white head. Nose of malt, yeast, some cola and berries also. Taste is much the same with hints of wood and spice, ginger in fact. Pretty much what I expected, a run of the mill Bruin.

Sep 29, 2007 A Sim rate (bottle from Kris Wines thanks to Reakt): Roasty, spicy, brown bread aroma. Tart, slightly metallic flavour with malt, wheat. Quite bitter with a very bland finish. OK, but not much body or depth to it.
