Mar 19, 2006 A dark, chestnut, red brown beer with a weak, beige-white head. the nose is a mellow blend of sweet malt and liquorice. The taste is of the sweet malt again, along with the liquorice, there is a tiny hint of dry bitterness in the finish to perfectly balance the sweetness. The aftertaste is smooth and bitter sweet. (Bottle - purchased from Waitrose as part of a three pack of small craft brewers of Britain).

Feb 16, 2005 Not exactly the ruddy or rich-ruby appearance you’d expect, though there is a nice tinge of red/orange mixed in with the medium-brown hue. Fairly vapid vapours of malt, corn syrup and cherry escape the glass – nothing special. Based on the subdued aroma, the flavour is a nice surprise: cherry, chocolate, and a good, solid dose of bitterness. The gritty texture is also quite pleasant. Starts slow, ends well.

Oct 6, 2004 From hand pump at The Alex in Derby.
A mid brown coloured beer served with a sparkler. Particularly malty with a strong creamy head. At £2.30 a pint for 4.5% a reasonable purchase. Though a tad to malty for my taste

May 6, 2007 [CASK: Ra!n Bar, Manchester 02/12/06]
A good autumn ale that is more of a winterish ale I thought. A rich ruby ale with a pleasant finish of good flavour. Worth a try.
