Sregnar35 (671), Rotterdam, New York, USA Jul 13, 2008 On tap at Mahars. Poured a nice brown with not too much head, aroma was tangy and sweet. Flavor very fruity with some good dried fruit taste and brown sugar.
kempicus (231), Wellington, New Zealand Jan 9, 2009 Pours a dark russet with ruby highlights, Honeybread or possibly bread yeast on the nose. Stalky raisins and an iron ore oakiness on the palate, finishes drier than i expected. Nightfall (365), Athens, Greece Jan 2, 2009 Dark amber with nice head. Malty and red fruits aromas Ripe fruits taste with distinct malt hints. Well balanced. SidewinderX (11), Williamsburg, Virginia, USA Jan 2, 2009 On tap, served in a snifter from the Green Leafe in Williamsburg, VA. Dark brown brew with a moderate head. Smooth taste, with hints of fruit, coffee, and chocolate. Nice taste left in the mouth after the sip. One of the best beers I have had in awhile. ILduce (115), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Dec 27, 2008 33cl in namesake goblet: Clear brown ale with medium rocky head which leaves a nice lacing. Nose puts forth dried fruits, alcohol and some nut. Taste is same with a bit of malt and toffee. Vinous character. Clean but a little unbalanced for my taste. alexanderj (1523), San Diego, California, USA Dec 26, 2008 Bottle, sampled at Christmas during family beer tasting. Color was a brownish one with red hints. Aroma of dark fruit, brown sugar, yeast, and light cocoa hints. Flavor was basically the same with a pretty solid balance of flavors. Overall, it was just an ok tasting beer, but nothing to make it stand out.
