Pleasant enough ale aroma. Deep orange, small head. Sludgy ale taste - full bodied but without details. Some rich malts, but mushroomy and a bit caramelly. Doesn’t grab me. Anna scribbled "Tastes like shit." on my notes, hoping I’d accidentally include it in the review while typing it in. We aim to please. cgarvieuk (4184), Edinburgh, Scotland

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 27, 2008 A Mes rate: cask handpump from the Volunteers Arms at GBBF thanks to Christian. A very clean amber brown colour with a thin white head. Good cakey, gingery malt aroma that is offset well by some liquorice and slight grassy hops. A similar flavour that balances out well thanks to a solid bready malt and bitter hop finish. A good bit of best. oh6gdx (8849), Vasa, Finland
