Jul 7, 2006 Poured from the bottle, a dark ruby brown, some carbonation, and a fluffy tan head. A caramal, but unfortunately metallic, aroma. The carbonation is a little strong in the mouth, finally relinquishing the tangy vinious fruit flavours. The short finish leaves some burnt caramal flavours and a lot of sweetness. Not a champion in my book, in fact, pretty average.

May 6, 2006 Bottled version. Not bad, but then nothing really special. Strong flavour as you would expect from a 7.3% beer. Not sure if it’s Championship material though.

May 2, 2006 (Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, orangey brown with a creamy, off-white head. Malty, roasted nose. Full-bodied with lots of roasted malt, some caramel and a bitter finish. Quite some alcohol also. Slightly disappointing. Thanks to Kasper for bringing this home from Scotland. 300406

Apr 12, 2006 Bottle, 500ml. A large but diminishing head. An aroma of malt, berries and a touch of dough. Dark brown appearance. Somewhat sweet taste with hints of plum, honey and chocolate with a moderate bitter finish. Light carbonation. Not bad, but nothing special. Somewhat overrated in my opinion.
