ross (1562), charlotte, North Carolina, USA Oct 15, 2006 Bottle from Richard. Reddish colored pour, no head. Smell is malty and sweet. Taste is similar, with no real body or much of anything here. Pretty bland actually. Probably not something I would want to get again. cbkschubert (1611), Rattlesnake Country, Arizona, USA Oct 2, 2006 12 oz. bottle via trade with IrishBoy - Pours a clear amber color with a small off white head which faded quickly. Light spotty lacing. Has a light caramel malt aroma and flavor. Medium body. Worth a try. Thanks Richard. Numenor (818), Richmond, Virginia, USA Sep 6, 2006 Thanks again to IrishBoy for sending this my way. A very nice dark red body with a very thin lacing of white head. Nice aroma, sweet... almost milky-like, hops and malt with a light fruit presence. Taste of caramel, some light hops... maybe some chocolate powder, very interesting. Slightly sweet and smooth ending, not offensive at all, subtle. Odeed (1491), Bakersfield, California, USA Aug 30, 2006 (yet another free bottle from irishboy...thanks!)clear amber with not much head.caramel and bananas dominate the aroma.flavor is a strange mix of bananas,chocolate,metal,and tobacco. Enniskillen (1589), Port Angeles, Washington, USA Aug 28, 2006 Caramel, with hazelnut, and malt in the aroma. Taste is nutty with caramel, not a lot of depth to it by any means, but it’s not bad. Much more like a brown rather then a red, or bitter.
