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.

Bottled. Pours dark brown with a bit of a reddish hue. Wispy tan head that glistens back down the side of the glass when it’s swirled. Malty aroma with brown sugar and chocolate notes. Malty and smoky with tons of roast and chocolate flavors. There’s a good bit of fruit character as well. Surprisingly bitter. Dry finish. Very carbonated.

Bottled. Pours dark red-brown with a tan head, leaving nice lacing on the glass. The aroma has fruit tones, hops, and malt, as does the initial flavor. Sweet up front, very matly, with hints of whiskey with a nice tinge of hops to the finish. Medium palate with a bit of fizziness. A great ale!

Pours a dark reddish brown color. Aromas of wood, dark fruit, and some sweetness. Flavors of whiskey?, caramel, and some faint hops. I love this beer.

Bottle: Reddish amber coloured, thin, stable foamy; dried fruit (raisins), a tinge of hops in the aroma, sweet-malty, caramelly and vinous nose; toffee and roast malts in the beginning; bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied; complex fruity finish, ending a bit chocolatey. Very good, but not a super-ale.....................

Fantastic! Dark mahogany brown, thick tan head. Rich aromas of molasses, raisin bread, and a soft fruity note. Full bodied palate, toffee, burnt sugar, cocoa, and stewed prunes. Well balanced and excellent.
