That’ll be me 20K then @ ChrisO’s. Thanks to Paul. Hazy amber beer, small cream colour head. Nose of glue and apples! Palate is light, dry and has decent fine carbonation. Flavour, unfortunately, follows the nose. Mild spice. Cream crackered!

Bottle shared at Kenny’s 20K tasting - London. Many thanks to Paul for this oldie! Pours clear amber-gold with no head. Smells strongly of solvent, glue, paint. Light sweet flavour, tangy, with more paint character, some berries. Light bodied with a smattering of carbonation. Tangy finish. Quite rough overall. Not the most enjoyable thing to drink. Certainly past its best, although still interesting.

Hazed orange golden coloured pour with a halo of white head. Flavour is composed of hot alcohol, solvent, granny Smith, tangy, nutty. Palate is low no condition, flabby, oily. No.

Bottle shared at Kenny’s 20K. It pours clear deep red with minimal head. The nose is musty, old, dried apple, permanent marker pen, prit stick and acetone. The taste is woody, earthy, musty, leather, definite glue vibe, oxidised malt and tangy dark fruits. Medium body and fine carbonation. I prefer my beers with less of a glue character. Underwhelming.....

Bottle on 09/15/2010 to celebrate Butters 2000th rating. Very clear copper body with a very small frothy white head. Sweet floral and earthy aroma with some tart notes. Surprisingly pleasant tart fruit and earthy malt flavor, lots of rich fruit. Medium light body with moderately low carbonation. I’m sure this wasn’t supposed to be a sour beer, but I like the way it works out.
