| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 17, 2007 My buddy’s mom found a bottle of this at a flea market and she bought it for us! Great move by mom, but I was a little concerned about the condition of the brew...Lots of caramel and toffee in the aroma--smelss almost BA. Murky brown with a thin head. Medium palate. Really nice toffee flavor--very creamy. Really suprised by this one. tkhans (50), Bangor, Wisconsin, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 11, 2007 Bland brew! Not much aroma or taste. Brown color. Light to medium body. Little roasted malt flavor---and no hops that I could notice. Stine (1380), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Apr 7, 2007 Very attractive deep burgundy pour. Foreboding metallic aroma paints a thin, underdeveloped picture, before revealing chocolate, bananas and caramel. Lovely. Subtle charred flavors including fried banana and dried apple. Dark chocolate, pistachio and burnt brown rice. The complexity of this is surprisingly intense but not overwhelming. Palate is slightly too thin and out of proportion but all in all this is quite a winner. Fukito (604), Buenos Aires, Argentina
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 6, 2007 Bottle at In de Wildeman, march 07. Burnt candy, toffee flavor with a touch of licorice and some sherry. A touch of molasses and dried fruits too. Dark burned sugar and fruits aroma. A clear, very dark (almost black) brownish color with some burgundy, ruby, hues and a thin white rim. MF is medium, rich fruitiness palate with an astringent ending. A nice, complex, enjoyable old ale. marchcow (664), Coralville, Iowa, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 4, 2007 Dark with minimal head. Sweet maltiness dominates. Molasses. Minimal carbonation. Palate is fairly flat. Flavor is good but not very interesting overall. BeerBelcher (943), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 1, 2007 Pours a black liquid with a bit (a cm or so) of head. Aroma is a faint amount roastiness with a lot of red wine characteristics. Flavor is some roastiness with additional red wine fullness. Mouthfeel is full-bodied and somehow thick. I didn’t find this very drinkable, and I didn’t really enjoy this.
