Orange red color. Plumaroma and flavor with a hint of smokiness. Sweetish and a bit thin. Almond. Some kriek-like sourness. Great beer!!

Early amateur rating warning! Cloudy brown beer, well carbonated. Initially a little sour but with a subtle and sweet and aromatic finish. Nice!

33 cL bottle. Pours clear golden deep amber with a diminished tan head. Aroma is dense fruity and mild spiced. Fruity and berry like flavour. Mild apple like flavoured later on. Smooth and light phenolic finish. Lasting apple finish.

275ml bottle from Booths, Knutsford. Ruby, thin pink head. Damson fruit, little bit of acidity. Very carbonated. Nice fruit, little bit light in the mouth, not huge malt or body. Little bit perfumed, jammy, but a little bit of sourness, metallic carbonation on finish. Just lacking in malts.

One and a half year old. Deep Amber color with a Damson berry (yes I do know this berry well) and toffee nose. Starts tart on the palate with some damson berry flavours and finishes very dry and VERY warming. I couldn't taste the 7% but I could feel it. It is a very complex beer, that I liken to a liquer, though not as syrupy. Don't know if I would want it fresh, aging did it some good.
