| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 28, 2007 Bottle. Muddy chocolate brown with a small head. Aromas are chocolate and weetabix malts with some berry fruit. Flavours are mid malts with a fruity messy bitterness. Doesn’t taste as if its finished. Dry on the finish with a prickly palate. Not great. Ethereal (1500), London, Greater London, England
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 10, 2007 500ml bottle - 4.8% vol. Brewed September 2066, Drunk June 2007.
Pours a dark amber, with a decent head that subsides gradually. Good smoky aroma and a strong, rich malt taste, also with smoky hints. A bit musty - I did rather over-age it - but a nice long bitter aftertaste. Worthy trying if you can find it. SilkTork (4173), Rochester, Kent, England
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 15, 2007 Dover Beer Fest 2007. A gentle brew which promises to be good when fully fermented. At the moment it tastes like a young, sugary, slightly inept, home brew. harrisoni (6798), Ashford, Kent, England
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 31, 2005 500ml bottle from the brewery. Deep russet colour with thin beige head. Some red berry malt and some nice mellow hop on the aromas. A tad sweet in mouth (maybe from the alcohol content) with good malts and then tangy hop on end.
