| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 12, 2009 Bottle (courtesy of harrisoni): Clear, very deep amber coloured, small and very quickly collapsing off-white loose head, lively carbonation; very malty nose, solid traces of molasses; dryish bitter-sweet flavour, pretty light bodied; finishes relatively malty and also slightly caramelly. Not too bad, but too monotonous.........
