A nut-brown beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel. The flavor has strong notes of alcohol which is present from the start to the finish with both a warming fealing as well as a note of metal, but it also has notes of caramel. The carbonation level is very high.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of boboski. Hazy amber golden with a handsome, light brown head. Fat aroma of wood and overripe fruit. Quite full-bodied, sweetish with notes of burned caramel, nuts, brown sugar and a hint of wood. Fairly high carbonation and a fairly hoppy finish - a little brutal hoppiness actually. 280907

picking up more sweetness with a gritty brown sugar character, good chocolate and dark caramel, some dark fruity character begins to emerge

Hazy amber-chestnut colour. Rich aroma is soft caramel and light earth. Good depth of chewy, earthy malts but limited in complexity. The sweet, moderately thick brew just seems basic, and doesn’t plum the depths of fruitiness and very dark maltiness that the best old ales do.

(750ml bottle) Large beige head atop a clear copper body. Aroma is moderately sweet, plum/raisin, oak, some alcohol. Taste is moderately sweet, plum/raisin, some caramel, cookie, alcohol, light earthy. Finishes with some alcohol burn that mellows as it warms. Medium-full body.
