Red, astute, voluptuous and intriguing, with copper highlights, a dense creamy head and a full, structured body. The rich blend of special hops and malts gives the palate refined sensations of honey, nuts and candied fruits, balanced by an enjoyably bitter finish.

Bottle. Bronze/ brown beer with a light fizzy head. The aroma is very gently roasted and malty, and the flavour is syrupy, mildly roasted and gently bitter. Overall a reasonable gently malty and roasted beer.

23rd April 2010. Bottle at the Rake. Hazy orange brown beer. Soft smooth palate. Sweet malt! Very sweet! Sumptuos! A tiny bit of orange hop providing just a touch of bitterness. Simple but very well done malty beer.

Swing-top bottle. Sweet apricot malt aroma with moderate alcohol astringency. Clear amber color with minimal head. Sweet apricot/apple malt and bitter flavor - light astringent finish. Not bad - on the rough side.

Bottle from Wine and Cheese. Pours dark amber with an off-white head. Very heavy, fruity aroma. Over caramel or toffee. Medium body with sharpish carbonation. Flavor is almost woody, with fruit and caramel. Maybe nutty rather than woody. The taste is unique. Suggests fresh apple juice to an extent. Finishes towards dry. Very interesting.

bottle at Ft Wayne locals tasting - Pours hazy brown with a lingering head and a caramel malt aroma. It has a lightly fruit accented malt flavor. The main drawback here is how thin the body is. That could definitely be better. I thought the flavor was alright though. The finish is quite mild. Not bad and how many times do you see a beer from San Marino of all places?

These beers have been pretty ubiquitous in my area for a while now, so I figured I’d finally give one a try - I guess I should have checked the ratings first - oh well - this one pours a clear dark amber with a small, soapy lace - the aroma is a little musty and earthy/vegetal with some medium sweet, rather indistinct maltiness, and a little bready character - a bit of root vegetable flavor up front, followed by some metallic character - behind this are some burnt sugars, light floral character, and a little bit of fruitiness, which is also quite indistinct - finishes a little watery, with some light grainy quality - pretty darn boring, but that won’t keep me from drinking all 50cl of this garbage (not at 7 bucks a bottle).
