Ruby, small beige head. Sweet fruit and chocolate nose with some grass. Very thin body with some slightly roasted sweetness and quite carbonated mouthfeel.. Even given the style you wonder about the lack of hops. Bland.

Copper pour, head faded rapidly.Aroma is malt based: toasted/dark malt, molasses, bread, weet-bix, vegemite. Might be a hint of hops in there somewhere...Flavours are similar, with sweet dark malt, more bread vegemite. But then it just ends... leaving a very watery sensation. Almost no bitterness or hops...

Bottle, shared by Papsoe. It’s a clear, dark golden beer with a small, off-white head. Honey, heather notes, sweetness and some dried fruits in the aroma. Sweet flavor with dried fruits, some bitter notes and caramel. Medium body with appropriate carbonation. Short, fruity finish. The beer felt a bit "dead", and rather boring, but was sure drinkable.

Bottle. Red-amber color with a medium beige head.. Aroma is malty, with some smoke, a bit of caramel, and maybe slight hoppiness. Sweetish malty flavor with some toast, caramel, a bit of metal and a rather dry finish. Quite light-bodied. Pretty weak.
