OleR (2008), Oslo, Norway Aug 16, 2008 Bottle. Big airy tan head. Beautiful shiny deep amber colored body. Excellent lacework. Strong nutty malt aroma with notes of caramel, dark fruits and earthy hops. Taste is full malty and has an inviting sweetness. Dark fruits and spicy tones, and more earthy bittering hops. Well-bodied. Balanced and smooth. Fine bitterness in the finish. JohnCoyne (70), USA Aug 13, 2008 Bottle @ Gadsby’s in Alexandria, Va.
Pours a deep brown with an average tan head that fades fast. Smells of raisin, malt and slightly of brown sugar. Tastes thickly of raisin, malt and ends on an alcohol note. Tasty.
craftycarl21 (513), South Hero, Vermont, USA Aug 10, 2008 Pours a fairly transparent brown with a gorgeous frothy head and very nice lacing. Aroma of bitter malt, nut, and hop- subtle, but nice. Flavor is delicious- a tad bit thin, but really smooth. Excellent stuff. Skidds (252), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Aug 10, 2008 You really can’t go wrong at all with Fuller’s beer lineup. They are all excellent beers. Pours a dark orange with an off-white head. Malty and hoppy aroma. Flavour of malts, spice, fruit, nuts and light hops. Medium bodied with a spicy aftertaste. A great beer. BelgiskOlklub (397), Viby J, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 Bottle 50 cl. Large frothy off-white diminishing head with spare lacing. Clear red/ruby body.

Defreni (994), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 29, 2008 Flaske. Flot dybrød øl med et fint lille skumhoved. Duften er kraftig maltet, som går over i smagen der også indeholder en smule frugt. Mere i stil med en doppelbock egentlig. Ikke så spændende.
