Dec 7, 2008 Bottle (500ml). Poured dark burnt copper with a decent sized, dense, frothy, lightly tanned head which lasted very well. Aroma was of honey coated cereal with banana’s, chocolate, buttery caramel, vanilla oak and a subtle fruitiness of tangerines. Flavor was a mild, earthy hop bitterness with rich toffee, roasted hazelnuts, chocolate, caramelized dates, sultana’s, dried pineapple and a woody finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation, a dry mouthfeel, chewy texture and a good finish.

Nov 20, 2008 Bottled 50cl. It pours a beautiful nut brown beer with a nice beige head. Buttery malty, sweet nose with banana showing up. Very pleasant palate. Lovely taste with hints of caramel, candy floss, mince pies, oak, berries, brown sugar and banana. Good lacework. Full bodied. Decent bitterness. Nicely balanced. Smooth. Faintly salty. Nuts, candy floss, hops and coffee in the finish which lasts for quite a while. A very pleasant experience.
