| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 17, 2006 Tap. Fairly dark color , not much of a head. Not as much burnt flavor as the name would imply. More dominated by malts, molasses and caramel. Aromas hint of some roasted malts but not much so. Quite a nice beer, good body.

Aroma is of toasted malt, some caramel and a bit nutty. Mouthfeel was average. Flavors were somewhat muted but still enjoyable, whith notes of roasted malt ever present. Tasty beer. auto (161), California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 2, 2004 On tap @ Cato's. Foamy off white head floats on top of a clear amber-brown body. Burnt nutty malt flavor with sufficient bitterness. Another good beer from Moonlight. mwsf (360), San Francisco, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 20, 2003 Dark reddish-brown color. Quite clear. Nice head. Very fruity aroma with some hops and malt. Toasted malt flavor. Slightly sweet. A bit thinner than I would prefer. Slight creaminess in front that drops out in the middle. Reminds me more of an English winter warmer than malt liquor. Tastes quite English, with possibly a touch of cascade hops buried in there somewhere. joet (1709), Fulton, California, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 13, 2003 Cask. Toasty and very tangy hop notes. The malt returns with some earthiness and a bit of oxidized drag. The mouth feels neat in the light creaminess and searches aimlessly for hints of strength. Here comes the tang again as things wrap up. Maybe more CO2 would help the balance by nrightening up the base and reducing oxidation.
