[thank you, TimE]
Pours deep brown with a small, lacing, off-white head. Aroma is great, quite vinious and malty. Some caramel and quite a good deal of hops. Mouthfeel is quite frothy and quite lively. Flavour is nicely malty, some overripe fruits and powerfully vinious. Feels a tad unbalanced.

Sep 30, 2008 (Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of fiulijn. Slightly hazy orangey brown with a rough off-white head. Fat aroma of overripe fruit and burned caramel. Quite full-bodied with fat notes of malt and burned caramel and a bitter, hoppy finish. A little unrefined but still very decent. 100908

Sep 17, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Dark fruity and malty aroma. Liqourice and malty initial flavour. Medium sweet and roasted with a growing bitterness into the finish. Smooth and yet with a bite from the hops.
