| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 17, 2008 Dark Crimson with a pillowy enthusiastic white head. Aroma features rich toffee malt, complex fruit, strawberry, ripe plum, an over all effect like that of sniffing a roses chocolate box. On the palate there is chewy sweet malt, a profound fruit medley of strawberry, peaches and apricot leading to a firm bitter finish. Cole (296), , Alberta, Canada

Aroma of yeast and a light hoppyness. Flavour is great, Bitter, but not over powering. Very malty with an almost chocolate finish. Fantastic mouth feel, light and creamy, with perfect carbonation, and great lacing. Very complex. This is a great beer!!! madsberg (4966), Søborg, Denmark

Light smoked, fruity, chocolatish flavour. Has a very nice lasting bitterness in the end. The label says "Royal Oak Traditional Bitter", but I think its this one.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 20, 2007 Bottle. Deep amber-orange with a small white head that sticks around to the end of the glass. I made a point of leaving the sediment in the bottle. Great aroma right from the get-go - earthy, almost funky malts, some caramel, a bit of alcohol, and pungent hops. Soft, creamy mouthfeel. Lovely flavour of sweet and woody malt, a hint of honey and peach in the middle, and a well-hopped finish with notes of citrus and wood. Really nice! jerkadilly74 (155), mooresville, Indiana, USA

I hadn't seen it in years and recently found it in Indy. I was so excited I nearly grabbed the clerk. Medium bodied , with is dominated by hops and malt. Smooth finish, I wish I could find this on draft.
