DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Feb 1, 2006 Cask Handpump at the GBBF, Kensington Olympia 05/08/2005
Mid brown coloured and slightly strong in alcohol. Malty with a crisp lasting finish. Some dryness. jfm (1639), Holbæk, Denmark Jan 5, 2006 Cask. Deep chestnut color with a white head. The taste is a sweet, light and thin malty body. Rather thin palate. Ungstrup (11378), Frederiksberg, Denmark Dec 23, 2005 [Cask at GBBF 2005] A hazy brown beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is malty and roasted with slight hints of smoke. The flavor is sweet and very roasted, but again also slighlty smoked, leading to a long dry finish. chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Dec 12, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense) at GBBF, August 2005. Mid brown colour. Herbal aroma, but I got some eggy sulphur too. Malty caramel on the palate, with some fruit, becoming reasonably dry. There’s also a yeasty note reminiscent of home brew. Not too impressed. Not in peak condition.
tiggmtl (4179), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Sep 18, 2005 Mild roasty and lightly spicy, fruity aroma. Clear brown body is topped by decent and lasting off-white head. Lightly roasty, fruity, malt forward flavour with low roasty bitterness. Mostly sweet with lasting fruit in the aftertaste. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Cask sampled at GBBF 2005.
