| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 2, 2009 cask at spoons in wimbledon. Dark amber colour, slight haze, decent head, some lace. Sweet woody stewed fruit nose which follows smoothly into the taste. Not as bitter as other titanic beers i had. Pleasant session pint, maybe a bit too much sugary sweetness.

Red-brown with a thick cream head - the pump had a loose sparkler on. Lots of malt on the nose and just a hint of straw, giving way to a nutty bitterness on the palate. The aftertaste is bitter but with a not-quite-right slightly acrid note to it. Magicdave6 (5560), London, Greater London, England
