Mud brown in colour and a heavy taste. Quite malty and sweet, but little hoppiness. Comes in a pint bottle though, which is a bonus! sliffy (1966), Columbus, Ohio, USA Dec 20, 2006 Bottle: Brown with an off white head. Aroma of caramel and earthy hops. Flavor, lightly bitter, some caramel and pale malts, biscuits. First time I had this I could barely drink it, I didn’t hate it as much this time around. Still not something I would pay for normally. OleR (2008), Oslo, Norway Dec 19, 2006 Can. 4.3% ABV version. Pours light reddish/brown with a slight haze. Creamy beige head, mostly lasting. Malty caramel aroma, notes of raisins and also a strange scent of something that reminds me of tea-leaves... Slight sweet malt flavors, moderately hopbitterness. Light body, dry mouthfeel, dry hoppy finish. Marsiblursi (1631), Göteborg, Sweden Dec 5, 2006 (Draught) Pours clear mahogany with a stable white head. Light roasted, toffee/cookie-ish malty aroma with some cherries and notes of metal. Some soil/ earthyness in the nose. Fruity.

Light afterbitterness. berkshirejohn (1767), Bracknell, Berkshire, England Dec 3, 2006 Chestnut brown with a long lasting cream head; very slight carbonation; rich malty aroma; full bodied and sweet with a taste of stewed fruit and a touch of chocolate amid the malts; aftertaste is refreshing and not too bitter.
