2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/2033cl bottle.
Pours a dark red with an offwhite head.
Smells a bit of caramel, lots of malt, and a bit bready.
Tastes of a medium sweetness, with a large bitter finish.
Texture is rough, a bit sand-papery, with mild carbonation.
Not a fan, and it doesn’t do the style much justice.

Bottle (fortunately n o t delivered by Allen!): Hazy, chestnut-amber coloured, small off-white foamy layer, some roasty-fruity aromas detectable; moderate dryish bitter and also sweetish flavours, light bodied; slightly lingering dryish hoppy-toasty finish. Nice little brew, well balanced...
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
UPDATED: NOV 2, 2012 Bottle from Drinks of the World, Bern. Sour aroma, sour bitter flavour, nobody else mentioned the sourness so I think this bottle may have been contaminated.
1.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle shared. Pours cloudy brown with an off white head. Aroma is funky sour, not in a good way, bad bottle perhaps. Flavour is also bad sour, must be contaminated.

Sour aroma. Hazy amber pour. Seems to be off as it’s sour.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle - 330ml. Hazy amber body with a huge beige foamy head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with grainy hints. Taste is dominated by malty and grainy flavors. It also carries some woody notes. Ends with a decent bitter/grainy finish. Not bad, but slightly misbalanced.
