| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 14, 2007 A Sim rate (50cl bottle from a Waitrose 3 pack): Great spicy aroma of cinnamon, nutmeg, slightly herbacious (sage?) and with a swish - something more alcoholic, like a port. Flavour is a slightly dulled down version of the aroma with the addition of orange and clove. Nice murky amber colour with a well kept head. Short spicy citric finish.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 8, 2007 The aroma is heavily spiced with cinammona nd nutmeg standing out and hints of black pepper. The body is a pale orange/brown and holds a fluffy and lasting, two finger thick white head. Spicy clove accented fore with hints of cinammon and sundry other spices. It’s a bit muddled, but not undrinkably so. The malt component is muted and a heartier, maltier brew-I think-would showcase the spices to better effect. Still nice ont he whole. yespr (12427), Copenhagen O, Denmark

| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | Apr 13, 2007 Gold-amber. Smells like a ’Christmas Spice’ plug-in air freshener. Paul Davey, who apparently brewed this dreadful jumble of tastes and aromas, should have known better. A huge disappointment after their excellent East Street Cream. nearbeer (1884), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 31, 2007 Updated: Oct 20, 2008500 ml bottle poured in Mason quart jar. The color of hazy iced tea, with a lasting inch of creamy foam. Aroma is clean spice, dark fruit, cherry and resin mixture nicely balanced with a dash of pepper. Taste is similar, with more drying from spice than hops. Maybe a bit much ginger, or maybe just a tad too much of all the spices. Medium body is extremely smooth and dry.
