Commercial Description:
Bottle; Pasteurised.
Its initial sweetness is, apparently, "of roasted and vinous notes with a subtle bitter aftertaste". Strong fruitiness, often with "banana notes" standing out, is derived from Old Peculier’s fermentation process.

Pours a dark red/brown with a nice light tan head. Aroma of coffee, dark fruit, and some earthy bitterness. Flavors of roasted malt, dark fruit, caramel, and notes of banana and earthiness. Thin to medium mouthfeel.

The inital sweetness gives way to a not unpleasant bitterness, but in doing so marginalises itself to a standard ale

Coffe colored, coffee tasting. Small head, full of subtile flavors like raisins and dried fruit. A hesitant, slowly deepening aroma. Intriguing.

Deep hazy amber color, average head. Smells a little earthy, a little caramel, a la Newcastle. Taste to match, this beer is very much like other commercially available English browns (Newcastle, Bass, Sam Smith Nut Brown, etc.) Not a bad beer, just nothing new. Winking Lizard Tour 2007

Very sweet and nutty beer. Pours a nice brown with a nice white head. Smell of malt, sweetness. Taste is very mild and fruity. Kinda of a dry finish with no aftertaste. I think I’ll have another

this beer has england written all over it. just has a typically british flavor profile. a little sweet toffee and raisiny flavor with a slight roasted bitterness. no real signs of hoppiness. not a bad beer...i can imagine this would be fantastic on cask as a good session pub beer.

Deep brown in color. Nutty raisin and roasted malt in the nose. Complex flavors all balanced against a delicious roasted malt background. Yummy.
