Dec 14, 2006 Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Clear brown colour woth a fluffy beige foam. Malty aroma of chocolate-sauce and crackers with notes of red berries. Full and very well-balnced flavour of the firm chocolately and vanilla-like sweetness and the dryish hoppy and earthy flavours of nuts, grass, orange-peels and dark chocolate. Firm medium mouthfeel. Finishes with a long, grassy and earthy bitterness with a nutty and an orangey undertone. Lovely.

Feb 10, 2007 Poured a very murky reddish-brown from a firkin at the Happy Gnome. Strong ripe fruit, banana, and toffe are accented by a slight smokiness on the nose. The flavor is lighter than the nose and has some nice butterscotch and prune. There is a slight hop bite, but not very noticeable. The flavor is slightly watery and kind of a letdown from the nose.

Feb 22, 2004 Amber in colour. This has a good caramel and spices aroma. Flavours are initially juicy and sweet malts then dry with burnt toffee notes. Has a fantastic finish that lasts for some time.

Sep 21, 2007 Lacy white cover tops the clearish amber. Extremely yeasty ale offering full on lightly sour flavours dominated by a strong stoney, dry, sandy bitterness. The finish is brutal, even showing some alcohol notes, but the aroma is pleasant, almost funky, estery. Really full-bodied. Original and impressive, but perhaps unpolished and certainly not very balanced. Still, I dig Burton Birdge’s yeast character.
