A full-bodied strong ale with a soft side. Subtle fruit flavours and a touch of hops, followed by a warm, welcoming finish of caramel and malt. It’s the beer equivalent of sitting next to a crackling fireplace.

Bottle. Clear dark amber with a tiny white head. Aroma of malts, whisky, a little bit of smoke and metal. Taste of caramel, honey, dried fruits, wood, whisky and metal ending with a herbal touch. Pretty boozy. Moderate bitterness. Low to medium carbonation. The parts are all there but the sum falls a bit short.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear amber with a slightly off-white head. Nose is slightly nutty with a hint of toffee and alcohol. Rich, malty body, raw and sulphurous, slight toffee and a very boozy finish. I strongly suspect that this is made with a Lager yeast - it's kinda crude and raw with no Ale fruitiness. 161121

Bottle bought in Italy, drunk while watching Borat Subsequent Movie Film on opening night and laughing my a$$ off. Clear medium brown, moderate head, sweet honey and biscuits nose. Flavor is packing a sugary caramel punch, hint of nuts, not very complex but a hint of interesting roasted malt aftertaste. Too sweet for everyday drinking.

Bottle, massive thanks to Dirty D. It pours rich brown with a small white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sticky, oily, dull smoke, earthy, toothy, meaty, dried fruits and leather. The taste is bitter-sweet, sticky, oily, dark fruits, spicy, toothy, chewy, fruit cake, dull sherry, toffee, light alcohol and tannin with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Fruity. Hides the alcohol nquite well somehow...

Barwa ciemnobursztynowa/jasnomiedziana, klarowne, piana zabrudzonej bieli, jeśli o kolor chodzi, niezbyt obfita, krótkotrwała. W aromacie słodowość, karmel, drewno. W smaku słodowe, karmelowe, nieco toffi, drewno. Goryczka niska do średniej (jak na styl), wysycenie w normie, nieco brakuje ciała, alkohol dobrze ukryty. Nuda, ale przynajmniej bez wad.
