aroma is subtle but very pleasant. Pours a dark chocolate brown with a hint of toffee coloration on the edges. Boisterous head, laced the edge of the glass as it dissipated. Flavor has elements of a typical english strong, but is so much more-- nuttiness, hint of caramel, fruity undertones. Great palate, sticks to the tongue, and is absurdly smooth for a 9% ABV beer. absolutely fantastic overall.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Black with a small but thick head. Kind of shy but nice fruity aroma. Wonderfull taste! Sweet like a belgian blonde and elegant like a barley wine. Complex, yet easy to drink. Sweet and choclatey.

Oct 2, 2008 100ml from bottle at EBF 08. Off-white head over an unclear, dark brown-reddish body. Aroma of dried fruits. Taste of dark fruits, black currant supported by a more tart edge to the ending. Bitter dry in the mouth. Full bodied. Nice (14.09.2008)
