mybestfriend (250), Gothenburg, Sweden Apr 14, 2008 Bottle. Pours a reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma is
liquorice, chocolate and soy sauce. Flavour has a good body and notes of liquorice, chocolate and some tar. The finish is burnt malts. Quite good!
greenhorn1 (384), Eugene, Oregon, USA Oct 10, 2008 12 oz bottle. Well, this definitely is a peculier beer. Pours dark brown, you can almost see through it if you try hard enough. No head on this glass of colored darkness. Aroma and flavor had barely detectable notes of malts, fruits..and yes, I can taste the banana as the commericial description claims. A bit light in the body, and where’s the bubbly? But it had a longer finish that was rather enjoyable. Overall...nothing too exciting. Indulgence (123), Ajo, Arizona, USA Oct 1, 2008 Hits the spot! Aromas of chocolate covered cherries, some yeast esters and sweetened malts, an initial head that settles down, the flavor never wavers through the whole experience and is decently complex as described with some vinous notes of dark fruits and some bitterness on the finish, the palate is medium, being just the side of thin instead of full, but a long finish lets me enjoy this one with my kit kats. kopher (123), USA Sep 28, 2008 Pours a watery brown, no head. Very caramelly and malty aroma, biscuity, maybe a little fruity. Taste is similar, nice sweetness with a slightly bittersweet, lasting finish. Clean and crisp for such a sweet beer, and fairly light-bodied. Bullit (585), Glasgow, Scotland Sep 28, 2008 Brown colour, small creamy head. Aroma has toated malts, and some fruits. Flavour has sweet and bitter malts. Not very likable. k9coug (19), USA Sep 21, 2008 Dissapointed in this "average" beer. Looked great, though, brownish gold that caught the light well. Flat (it is British). Flavor light and no complexity. Paid too much for this bottle.
