Oxford tasting; 9% ABV
Dark amber, brown color, small head. Strong beer with a strange concoction of vegetables, caramel, some malt, some esters; veggies smell, strong alcohol feeling.
Very chaotic.

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy dark amber brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is full of toasted caramel malt, bready malt, and earthy notes. Flavour is fairly earthy, with toasted caramel, bready malt, and earthy notes. A bit of cardboard, with a toasted bready finish. By no means a complex beer, but it's decent.

650ml bottle at Alex's. Vintage 2017. Pours a bit hazy copper with a tan head. Aroma is malty, slightly sweet, malty, some dark fruits, a bit veggie. Taste is similar, boozy, moderately to high sweet with fruity and roasted malt notes, hoppy bitter. An ok one.

Hazy, medium brown. Light brown. There's some bubblegum on the nose, with some light caramel. Fairly bitter. Rich, toffee, and caramelly. It's a bit husky, and a little caramel, too. There's a touch of raisiny fruitiness in there as well, finishing with a blast of alcohol.

Taster at St. Nicholas, during Eclipse Sunday. Body is a slightly cloudy brown, with a thin head that persisted while I attended to its brethren on the taster tray. Warming alcohol from its first sip. This is just a bit fruity. The base malt might be pretty sweet, but hops are hiding in the background to keep it from becoming treacly. A smooth strong beer with plum and dried cherry notes.
