| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 30, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Shared by garthicus with me and blankboy. Dark brick red with a small frothy (everything’s frothy lately!) off-white head. Burnt roast grain aroma, unpleasantly vegetal and dry ... slightly smokey. Taste is mild and dry, sweet roast up-front but a dry sourness lurking ... not too good. Watery, still, with a stale, papery aftertaste. Not great. garthicus (1307), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Oct 18, 2009 Deep brown of color with a beige head. An aroma of sweet liqurice and weak roasted malt. A flavor of roasted malt and weak bitter notes. NosirIwont (1183), Aalborg Vestby, Denmark
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 1/5 | 7/20 | Oct 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Tart, roasted malt aroma. Slight notes of liquorice allsorts- Okay, but the tartness ruins it a bit. Flavour is dusty, tart and roasted and with cereal notes. A bit cloying. Finish is rather the same, but feels a bit watery. Too much carbonation. The tartness is a massive minus in this beer. 26-09-09. Birdiebeagle (807), Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 30, 2009 Bottle Pours a nice black with a thin at best off white head. The head leaves quickly, leaves decent rings of lacing. The aroma is well mixed with a roast coffee to it, although there is hints of hops with it. Has a light carbonation. The flavor is good. Has just enough heaviness to make it stand up. Has a light body and a syrupy texture. The finish is good and a mild aftertaste.
