3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Can trade from shigadeyo. Poured clear brown with an average off-white frothy head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate Moderate sweet toasted nut aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture. Medium sweet smooth flavor with a medium bitteersweet finish of moderate duration. I would recommend this to a freind.

500 ml can. Thanks to beastiefan2k for sharing. Dark brown with a light ruby tint. The aroma is malty and sweet with light toast/toasted nut character and some interesting cherry/berry fruitiness. Good flavour, nutty malt sweetness, toasted malt and a malted milk and chocolate component. Light earthy bitterness. A decent session ale.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Can thanks to footbalm: Pours a barely transparent dark mahogany with a nicely-lacing frothy tan head. Fresh green piny hoppy aroma has some roasted malt and coffee notes along with sweet caramel toffee. Body starts with a lightly sweet earthy dark caramel maltiness and crisp piny bittering and flavor hop balance. Palate has a fizzy dissolved carbonation and a smooth oatmeal finish with some lingering bittersweetness. An interesting hoppy brown ale.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Very good, very fine, nitro-like creamy, dark cream-coloured head, slightly irregular over very dark brown beer with some faint red-brown highlights. Dry hoppy nose, bit of coffee, creamcake hinting at underlying sweetness. Whiffs of liquorice and caramel aroma’s. Again a combination of dry hops, coffee, oatmeal (indeed) and the typical burnt-sourish flavours of stout. Two things surprise me: the effortless going-over from on stage in the taste to the next: very good balance, as well as the accuracy of the commercial description on the can (not the above). Retronasal a lot of caramel. Velvety, creamy MF and full body. Nice oatmeal stout. Thanks, Dave.

Canned - Chris O shindig 2007 - A dark brown beer with hints of purple. The aroma is malty and has big alcohol notes. Seems very Barley winish in the nose. Big flavours also. Hops, malt and alcohol. Really cannot believe this is a 5.1% Brown Ale. Amazing brewery.
