Bottle from Waitrose. Appearance - dark honey colour. Decent head. Nose - burnt toffee, molasses. Burnt raisin too. Taste - prunes and more molasses. Palate - close to medium bodied with a decent finish. A tick thin as James points out. Overall - good enough.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours clear mahogany with a thin off-white head. Aromas of light toffee and nuts, something faintly metallic. Taste brings a bit of malt loaf. Thin finish, but better than expected.

Fűszeres, erős gyümölcsös, citromos illat. Íze intenzíven fűszeres, komlós. Határozott gyümölcsösség, gyenge keserűsség érződik. Egy idő után előjön egy nagyon gyenge karamelles hatás. Gyenge keserű, és gyümölcsös utóíz, de sokáig megmarad. Közepesen telt.

Bottle. Copper-brown with next to no head. Not enthused about the clear glass bottle as despite being kept in a dark cellar it still had a mikd skunky aroma and taste. There is a good lightly sweetened maltiness to be found in here too and possibly a hint of chocolate.

Cask @ Montgomery’s Tower, Shrewsbury. Pours dark brown, no head, no discernible aroma. Taste is watery boring brown bitter. A waste of time.

Mahogany brown and clear. Lots of dark malts. Moderate sweetness. Well balanced. Good but lacks a bit of oomph!
