This beer should have been right up my alley. Seeing that it is rated 98% makes me think I got an old one or something like that....

Pours into a chalice with many, many bubbles hiding the light yellow colour. Very big, light, fluffy head. Aroma is of malts and coriander, smells slightly syrupy too. Taste is a strong alcoholic brew with lots of syrup, very sweet, slightly bitter and coriander-ish finish. Very strong, but very nice, and went well with my blued steak.

Bottle from Theatre of Wine, Greenwich. Light golden pour. Big fluffly white head. The aroma oozes out. The nose has citrus, fruity, cinammon. Lovely sweet, hoppy flavours with a zesty, candy sugar tang. Good hoppy, bitter-sweet finish. Leaves quite an impression on the palate.

Bottle, 33cl. Pours a clear yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet, coriander and alcohol. The flavor is coriander and alcohol. The palate is sweet, and overall a good beer but a little heavy on the alcohol.

Bottle. Golden orange colour with a foamy white head. Malty aroma with notes of spices, fruits and alcohol. The flavour is malts, spices, alcohol and some fruitiness with a bitter finish. Medium-bodied and smooth mouthfeel. Not bad, but I was expecting better, a bit too alcoholic.

small bottle. pours a cloudy orange colour. definately a sipper, not a bad alc.% taste, but you can feel it running through you with each drink. Pretty solid beer overall.
