A good beer, but nothing amazing. Pours a brown/red. Has a very standard beer aroma with some fruit and chocolate. Flavor of strong generic beer, dried fruit, and a little chocolate. Kind of a peppery taste with a good amount of bitterness.

Brown body, red shine, creamy beige head; Fresh fruity nose, some malt, but mostly fresh fruit like apple and pear; Soft body, at the same time fruit acidy with some sharp carbonation; Bitter acidy finish with lots of malt. Alright but not very interesting.

1 pint 0.9 oz bottle, enjoyed this beer immsensely! Poured a nice deep color with caramel and a slightly white head. Deep, rich malt with chocolate flavors, very smooth on the palate as well and ended strong. Definate purchase sometimes soon.

I was impressed with this ale. Nice brown/orange color with an off-white creamy head. Immense malt character with chocolate flavor and a peppery element. Has notes of bitter fruits. The strong hop finish balances the extreme malt charcter. Very enjoyable ale.

Nice head and an dark amber colour. A nice bitter taste of hops. Perhaps a little to bitter for my taste but then again it is a strong ale with a strong taste.!

Had this from a bottle, dark amber appearance with a nice head. Aroma was sweet and spicy and flavors were slightly bitter, but real nice. An exceptional brew.

Beautiful dark amber color with great head. Burnt aroma. Burnt malty flavor with too much bitter hops.

500ml bottle conditioned ale bought at the great St Albans Beer Festival 2005 (going back there this year). The beer has a deep mahogany colour topped with a medium lasting off-white, thick head. Inviting sweet aroma of caramel malt. Full bodied. Rich flavours of dried fruit, hops and roasted malt. Solid bitterness in a lingering aftertaste. Very tasty after more than nine months in the cellar.
