| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 20, 2008 Dark brown, decent tight head, which fades to something thin and wispy. Light crisp fruity aroma, sweet too. A little cold, harsh carbonation at this temperature. Taste is very sweet - burnt caramel, pleasant bitter tang too. Some sharp sour hint - not off sour, just sharp sour, and pleasant brown-ness. No trace of 7%. Wonderful sweet bruin, not too malt-obsessed. Quaffable. Carlus12 (361), London, Greater London, England
