Pours muddy amber with no head. Aroma is sweet biscuits and light tartness. Completely flat mouthfeeel. Infected (again). Too bad, as the stout was wonderful... MesandSim (5851), London, Greater London, England
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 24, 2007 A Mes rate: 50cl bottle thanks to Ethereal. A very solid bitter. Lovely mid red brown colour with a very gippy off white head and lace. Really pleasing bitter hop aroma with light tobacco notes. The malt comes through a little more in the flavour finishing with more floral hops. Straight down the line but a good performer all round. Ethereal (1500), London, Greater London, England
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 1, 2007 500ml bottle from Middle Farm, East Sussex. Lots of sediment in the bottle, so you really need to be careful pouring! Hazy brown with a small frothy head. Nice malted barley aroma which is prevalent in the flavour but nicely balanced with hops. Nice smoky notes too. Excellent length with a great lingering flavour. I’ll definitely have this again.
