| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 6, 2009 This 75 cl bottle with plastic cork pours a little vreamy head. It is sweet and not very distinguished bitters. This bottle was abou one year old and this keeping from drinking makes this beer somewhat flatter then I remembered last time I drank it. Aftertaste is short and mostly dark mouth and small bitters. Nice but not that sophisticated. zapprentice (310), East Setauket, New York, USA

Pours a dark coppor colour with a normal size head and little carbonation.
Smell is very much that of dried fruits, such as plums and raisins.
Taste is about the same with also some good spices there in the mix.
