Aroma of sweetmalts, hedgerow fruit and some earthiness. Sweet, malty flavour with a lot more fruit and bitter hop finish. A good bottled beer - streets ahead of the Tanglefoot sampled earlier in the day. azlondon (662), Fribourg, Switzerland

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Nov 6, 2005 I hope I’m talking about the same beer as everyone else here, but I didn’t like it. Smells like dishwater with a bit of melon. The flavour was malty - and slightly dark - but not sustained. It soon gives way to a nasty finish of ethanol and washing machine water. imdownthepub (5143), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England

Deep brown with red hue, slight white head. Sweetish full bodied fruity beer with a slight chemical note about it. Plenty of caramel toffee notes but overall fairly decent. Garrat (1132), Suffolk, England

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 31, 2003 A reddish bitter with malts dominating although there are a range of other flavours present.Fruits are there and as are traces of hops.What may appear on the surface to be a run of the mill strong bitter turns out to be a complex and satisfying drink.
