Sample at SBWF 2016. Brownish with a medium head. Aroma of malt, some smoke, caramel and some grain. Similar taste. The body was medium and the carbonation fairly soft.

Rated on June 7th, 2014. Lighter brown, small head. Aroma is nicely sticky, malt candy. Sort of like a barleywine, a small barleywine. It is supposed to be a dunkel... Taste is not that sweet but still. Hops are more subdued, caramel sweetness lingers. Dry mouthfeel. Does not feel like a dunkel at all. Overall interesting but a little too sweet for my taste.

Med brown color, with russet tinges. The nose is very sweet, too sweet malt character, with a touch of glazed honey ham. The mouth is too sweet, but shows nice depth of tootie rolls, cherries, brandy with sweet chocolatiness. A touch cloying. Great depth, but the sweetness is highly distracting from the over all beer.

Can thanks to Big Dave. It pours clear dark amber with a small white head. The nose is earthy, toast, cocoa, charred wood, light smoke and grapefruit. The taste is wood, resin, caramel, smoke, citrus peel, toast, toffee, date and raisin with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Not a whole lot to it. Alreeeet.

Craft100 fest at Craft Clapham. Cask. Off Piste Can, thanks to Big Dave. Clear deep dark amber beer, small pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and airy, light fine carbonation. Tangy dark fruits and oxidised tasting caramel. Light finish. Okay.
