| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Aug 25, 2005 i love this beer and drink a lot of it when i go up to Hastings. Nothing will ever topple Doom Bar in my heart, but this is certainly in my top 3. Totally drinkable, malty nose, light bitterness, nutty and all things nice. I even like the advertising and their staff at GBBF 2005. Top Marks. JonMoore (1561), Loughborough, Leicestershire, England

Dark amber colour with a firm, creamy head. The aroma was of malt with overtones of grassy hops. Taste is malty with some fruit. A smooth, medium-bodied pint with a slight, pleasant bitterness. Overall a top beer. 28.5.08 Cask at Green Man, Trumpington, Cambridge. rated 6,4,6,4,14:3.4. Not so impressed this time round. Gentle sweet berry fruit in aroma. Malty taste and mid bitter finish.

Thick, ice cream lacing, and a deep chestnut colour, with a tasty caramel aroma. V. v. good. Daredevil (77), Bern, Switzerland
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 4, 2008 a bit like the 2eme or 3eme GC Bordeaux .... everything is perfectly balanced and smooth ... no rough edges no lumps and bumps ... if you are looking for a perfectly executed medium bodied fruity ale ... this might come close to your best bet ... jammin7jg (139), Withington, Manchester, England
