Bottle, 33cl. Pours appealing dark brown with russet hue, with a decent head that endured. Rounded aroma of mature fruit with yeast and malt undertones on the nose, and similar on the palate with more eveident sweetness. Medium mouthfeel, and a decent double overall.

330ml Bottle: Aroma of yeast, dark ripe fruit, slight yeast, malt, and a hint of funk. Poured very deep orange/brown/slight ruby in color with a small, rocky, tan head that diminished but lasted throughout. Clear. Very sparkling. Flavor is medium sweet. Tasted of dark ripe fruit, yeast, candi sugar, malts, and a hint of nuts. Medium body. Average texture. Average carbonation. Sweet, dark ripe fruit, finish is slightly dry.

A nice reddish brown colour similar to the label. Nice taste but nothing special

Pours a dark brown with a strong smell of grains and sour alcohol. Not quite as full bodied as I had expected, and the sour/ alcohol taste is off putting.

A malt, caramel bomb without much else going on here. My guess is it could keep you alive during a fast, but I wouldn’t reach out for it.

Deep dark brown color where a little light shines through (appears clear). Chunky and rocky head; leaves significant Strong brown sugar/molasses aroma. After the head settles a little, there’s a metallic smell. Nice blend of sweet (malt sugar) and bitter (hop). Surprisingly thin for this style of beer. Bitter finish with that pesky metal taste showing up in the aftertaste.

Aroma is malty, with a hint of apples and sugar. Flavor is more distinct caramel and still some apple and a little raisin
