| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jun 11, 2006 Bottle. Great red-brown or mahogany colour with white head. Aromas of berries and flowers and a weak tone of caramel. The body is a bit thin for such a strong beer, but it has a great nutty taste with some burnt tones. Not vinious at all. Some raspberries appear in the aftertaste. eaglefan538 (2397), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 9, 2006 Poured a orange to brown color with a very pillowy slightly tan head that lasted for quite a while and laced very well. The aroma was somewhat smoked and of dry fruits (an interesting combination). The flavor was of peat smoke (like a scottish ale), some fruit flavors, some butter, and with some roasted coffee malt type flavors in there. Finished somewhat dry relative to a scottish ale, and had the mouthfeel (lightly acidic) of other old ales I’ve had. The alcohol doesn’t really hide in this one, but it is enjoyable. joergen (8627), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 16, 2006 A sweet malty nose. A nice head with a lasting lace. This beer has a sweet fruity flavor with good maltiness. A decent palate not over carbonated and smooth in the mouth. I drank one glass straight out of the refrig and let the bottle sit while I sipped it. Do yourself a favor and don’t drink a drop of it below 50*. oldrtybastrd (1823), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA

Flavor is a dark fruity kinda tart with the slightest tingle of metallic at the finish. Beerdedone (1885), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA

Aroma of fruit, citrus, and sweet malts. Flavor is sweet, alcohol is present, caramel, fruit and a metallic finish (might have killed this brew for me). good body, ok brew.
