BREWMUSKCLES (1062), New Jersey, USA Sep 4, 2008 NICE malty AND WINEY with adequate flavors of chocolate and licorice a bit nutty with a slight old waxy flavor. beer is thinnish and a bit slick it is altogeather weak uncarbonated and unremarkable in that respect. a butterscotch brandy port kind of taste and mouthfeel toward the back of the palate. interestingly demonstrative in taste would be better with a tad more kick and carbonation or smoothness or body. SeanMacGC (233), Dublin, Ireland Aug 3, 2008 Bottle, 500 ml. Pours dark bronze, with decent, but short-lived, head. Malty on both the nose and the palate, and decent mouthfeel and flavour.
