| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 4, 2007 Courtesy of after4ever and shared with after4ever and bitbucket. Pours a clear deep dark brown with frothy off white head. The aroma is roasted malts mixed with brown sugar and mild caramel. It then moves more roasty and burnt as opposed to sweet. The taste is smooth and starts with roasted malts along with a mild malt astringency. It then becomes mildly sweet but with even more roasted malts than the early part of the taste. Into the finish I get more malt astringency that is just right for the style. Beershine (2754), Traipsing Around, Cambodia

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 23, 2009 Bottle. Glossy tar with a woolly tan head tufting the glass; faint ruby glints against the light. Aroma straight grapefruit and lychee to begin with, blending into chocolate ice cream, Bovril and burnt toast. Slick, burnt and punching; grapefruit bitterness; high cocoa, tonic water and incinerated pistachio in a deep, resonating finish. Silky and integrated, especially the dregs. Very good. At least as good as Mostodolce Jacky Brown. Suttree (2740), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
