Poured a hazy, glowing brownish ruby, with a small white head, spare lacing. Aroma very light, but I caught sweet malt, sour wine, licorice, cloves and some coriander. Taste also fairly thin, astringent, slightly hop-bitter, mildly malty, strong hazelnut with warming. Thin and astringent mouthfeel, finishes very minerally, nuttier and slightly bitter. Decent, but needs a bit more body. Lunkie (1020), Glen Iris, Australia

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 4, 2005 Browny cola-like body with a hard to pour, compact, rocky off-white head. Didn’t think the head would last at all but it managed to hang around for a while and it tried to leave lacing. Burnt caramel malt aroma. Fruit also shows up in the taste, flat, sweet with a light to medium body, alcohol is only slightly noticeable. Easily drinkable but I felt a little let down with this drop. beerhugger (541), Oshawa, Ontario, Canada

Nice dark brown body when not counting the multitude of suspended yeast. Malty and raisin/currant fruits lead to a nice sweet caramel flavour. Smooth finish - decent.

Dark brown, small tanned head. Aroma is malty, red currant juice -like. Medium-bodied. Malty with plums and grassy hops. Similarities to some Silly products. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 18, 2005 Deep Brown-Brown-Red color with a few small particles in there. The off-white head was thick and lasted the enitre glass. Malty and carmel aromas. And maybe some Chocolate Milk. Flavor was very sweet and fruity. Thick almost creamy mouthfeel and a very smooth finish. Very Nice. PeterA (339), Virginia, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Apr 14, 2005 Bottled. Cherries in the aroma, with some maltiness. The color is caramel-like with a thick biege head. The flavor has some cherry and perhaps some currant. The mouthfeel is crisp and leaves a little bitterness, and smokiness behind. I enjoyed this quite a bit.
