Poured from fat bottle. Unique aroma of brandy, molasses, raisin. Opaque amber, thin head. Flavor is also unique with lots of roasty malt, but not sweet. Bitter backtaste. Sour cherry notes. OK beer but did not quite work for me.

500ml bottle, best by 11/05/09. Clear amber gold with a big tan head. Nice sweet nutty nose, some herbal hoppiness. Mild flavor, herbal and lightly nutty. Decent, but nothing special.

Bottle. Deep red colour with an off-white head. Sweet aroma with hoppy and fruity notes. The flavour is sweet, malty, hoppy and nutty with bitter finish. Quite nice bitter.

Bottle (500ml). Poured bronze with a small, rocky, off-white head which lasted very well. An almost herbal aroma with parsley, star aniseed, fantastic fennel-like hoppy notes, ginger, caramel malts, plums and blackberries. Flavor was a good hop bitterness with tart blueberry, juicy blackberries, currents, caramel malts, basil, fennel, gingerbread, roasted hazelnuts and a dry finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation, a dry mouthfeel and a good finish.

Bright copper colored body with a light khaki head. The aroma has rich caramel and oranges. There is also some milk chocolate rabbit. The taste is largely milk chocolate with hints of apple. There was also some rich bread crust. A nicely made brew with a roasted finish. Hints of iced tea start to come through as it warms.

A golden ale with an extra thick frothy off white head, very carbonated. A pleasant citrusy malt aroma, grassy, lightly oxidized and biscuit. In mouth, crisp malt and light hopping, light mineral noted. Still in good shape. Tasted Nov. 2006, for a BB of 29-09-05.
