Bottle from The Bottle Shop Druid Rd. Aroma and taste are spot on, but body is a bit thin. Nice nutty, pit fruit flavors, sweet aroma. Holds its weight well.

Excellently executed like Michael Jackson moonwalk. A hint of florals, light banana, some roast barley. Dark brown pour with great head and some lacing. Some caramel. Light sweet but clean finish. Tap at Smokehouse.

Keg at The Hanging Bat. Hazy amber/brown body with a beige head that holds well. Good lacing. Aroma of caramel, bubblegum, spices and banana bread. Flavour of caramel, figs, nuts, brown bread and white pepper. Medium body with a frothy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. This reminded me of Westmalle Dubbel. I’m surprised this hasn’t scored higher than it has - it’s a lovely beer with lots going on.

Bottle at home shared with Sarah, picked up from beer gonzo. A hazed reddy amber blood orange coloured pour with a lively frothy beige head. Aroma is nice gooey banana bread, dried fruits, toffee, banoffee pie. Flavour is composed of sweet toffee, nutty tangy dried fruits, earthy woodland fruits. Palate is medium sweet, medium bodied, grain tannin, moderate carbonation. Little alcohol presence in the finish. Good.

BOTTLE 50 CL. Cloudy mahogany, beige head. Smells and tastes like a good dunkles weizenbock. Dark sweet bread, caramel, dried prunes and bananas. Some nail-polish/acetone like notes just add to the complexity. Aventinus level.. Very good.

500ml bottle from Thirsty in Cambridge, drunk at home. Mid-brown, muddy-cloudy, with noticeable carbonation but no head. Smell of chocolate malt, apricot brandy and almond butter. Very nice but doesn’t hang together quite as well as I’d like. Sweet, mega-malty and dangerously alcoholic. Body is a bit weak and could do with an extra zap of carbonation. There’s a lot going on here, and it’s fun to drink. Some balance issues but that doesn’t stop it being a darn good beer.
