The beer has a nice color, dark red with a pretty white foam. Smells a bit toffee, malt, burnt, margarine and some fruitiness. The flavor contains mainly caramel and hops. Bitterness is quite light. Some burned notes are there too. Nice and clear drinkable beer.

Bottle. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Amber-orange colour. Heavy malty aroma. Toffee and caramellic notes. Moderate bitter flavor. Average mopderate bitter finish. Too caramellic. Oily palate. Not very good.

Bottle. Dark brown, slightly hazy, medium custard coloured head, scanty lace. Delicious malty aroma, burnt toffee, brown sugar, hints of plummy fruit. Toasty toffee flavours, nicely spicy hinting at fruitcake, medium sweetness that dries out completely in the surprisingly bitter finish. Medium bodied, very tasty.

500mL bottle. Best before 13/Sep/99. I disagree! Aroma is dusty caramel. Lightly sweet flavor, leather and prunes.

Aroma similar to optimator; heavy fruit flavored maltiness. Taste is a bit smoother with a hopiness that nullifies the fruity malt aroma. Not a drain poor, but nothing to write home about.

Seconds please! This beer is deep and rich with lush figgy and fruitcake aromas. I love this beer. It is a simple assessment, but this beer fit my mood aptly.
