| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 27, 2009 very nice head with good lacing, body is dark amber/brown/ruby, clear,aroma is caramelly malts, spices and a good deal of alc and yeast, then come biscuits, orange peel and liqueur, At the first sip it is smooth sweet, but afterwards there comes bitter/sour taste fighting against caramelly/syrupy notes, there is also strong numbness like after eating orange peel or just pepper, conclusion great,mature brew from land of strong beer, a bit too sweet but kicks in the head davidm (149), Melbourne, Australia

Flavour starts sweet, to explode in a combination of bitter-sweet notes that last long. Full-bodied, nice mouthfeel, and some alcohol in the finish. Dark brown in colour with a long-lasting but thin head. cfrancis (311), Gloucester, Ontario, Canada

Caramel, toffee, malt, all play with your mouth. Strong alcohol taste that bites and leaves a strong aftertaste. Very nice beer that you can sit, relax and enjoy.
