| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 19, 2008 bottle by way of glouglouburp.... rich looking hazy amber pour with a small tan head. the aroma is quite sweet... like butterscotch candy mixed with caramel, malt, faint maple, bubble gum and a touch of sour-ish earthiness akin to root vegetables fresh out of the garden. the flavor is pretty much the same with a bit of alcohol and and a kick of spiciness on the finish. there’s a definite note of wood and maple in the aftertaste. medium to full body with a stickiness which coats the lips. this is usually off putting but this has enough acidity, spice and alcohol heat so that it doesn’t get overbearing... fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 13, 2008 Dark brown color; the medium head reduces quickly. It has a strong caramel aroma, and light aroma of vegetables, spices, liquorice. Medium body, with strong caramel flavor, medium sweetness, and a mixed touch of spices and vegetables (cinnamon and carrots for example). Low bitterness; in the final the alcohol is a bit too much evident. It reminds me some young and recent Fuller’s Vintage ones, but simpler. oh6gdx (8839), Vasa, Finland
