The bottle i ha d was one year past its use-by date. Not bad, a bit unexciting. Brown sugary, slightly burnt caramelized flavour, quite a sweet start, but it dried out a touch towards the end, surprisngly ok, considering how old it was.

Oct 3, 2008 Bottled 25cl. It pours a nut brown beer with a small beige head. Honey, candy, vegetables, caramel, cherries and metal in the nose. The alcohol is rather present. Gluey with hints of burnt sugar. Honey, caramel, vegetables, hay, brown sugar, wax and candy in the taste. Not much lacework. Sweet malty. Low bitterness. This beer reminds me a bit of vitamalt. Some dates sneaking in. Metallic. Unpleasant sticky components. A hint of onion in the finish. A huge dissapointment.

Sep 24, 2008 Bottle shared with Mes @ The Royal Harbour Brewhouse, Ramsgate. Copper with a beige head. Earthy malt, cane sugar and caramel aroma. Taste is sweet and malty with notes of caramel. Pretty boring overall.

Aug 30, 2008 Bottled. Pours clear and dark amber with an off-white, foamy head that disappears fast. Lots of carbonation. Nose of malt with notes of nuts and fruit. Sweet flavour with caramel and malt. Watery palate. Medium bodied. Little bitterness at the end. Disappointing.
