Commercial Description:
Bottle: Filtered.
"It is a deep coppery-red in colour and is very aromatic with intensely floral hops and a lightly sweet and malty flavour. This full-bodied ale offers a very pleasant high bitterness, with smooth sweet malt character, creamy head with good carbonation, and with an excellent bittersweet finish."

21st May 2008. A clear brown ale with a slightly sour malt and a bitterish dry finish. There is something fundamentally wrong with this beer. It’s tired and somewhat offensive!

Caramel malt aroma with some grassy bark notes, not terribly strong. Clear dark amber, headless. Watery, but a decent amount of malt flavor. Light bitter grass finish. Surprisngly decent.

Amazing how a questionable beer like this makes it all the way across the atlantic and into my livingroom....but it had a picture of a red pig jumping through a yellow hoop!...says Homer Simpson. Its clear brown with a medium ilght brown head. Aroma holds lots of caramel, grain and brewmash. Flavor is sweet with a harsh alchohol bitterness, leaving a bad breath. Oh well..Black Damnation is next in line, so i cant feel too disapointed!

Bottle. A clear, golden beer with an off-white head. Grainy nose with some caramel, hints of dms, and fruityness. Malty flavor with caramel, a bready touch and some hints of dms. Not much bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Certainly a drinkable beer, far from impressing, and lacking some bitterness, but more interesting than some other Mexican beers I’ve had. 090720
