Ca två år gammal flaska. Smak och doft av humle, malt, honung, kolaremmar, kryddig och örtig med toner av russin. Välbalanserad och god. Trevlig beska som avrundar det hela.

Flaska från SB. Ca två år gammal med snart passerat BBD. Bärnstensfärgad med lågt skum. Stor doft av främst kolaremmar och fruktiga malttoner. Rejäl kropp, med söta torkade frukter, honung och kolaremmar men också rejält humlad med en åtminstone för en engelsk BW rejäl kryddig och gräsig beska som skapar en fin balans. Smakbilden med mycket humle och bra maltbas känns igen från den vanliga old Thumper men här är allt uppskruvat flera snäpp. Riktigt trevlig.

650ml bottle @ Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Thanks BTR!
Pours dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of sweet malts, caramel, toffee, boozy notes. Taste is sweet, sticky and malty with hints of syrup and alcohol. Finish is stingy, sticky and boozy with hints of caramely malts and syrup. Quite unbalanced and messy.

Location: Draft at Shipyard Tavern (Mystic), 7/13/13
Aroma: The nose is caramel and toffee, some booze, fruity notes, and bready notes
Appearance: This one pours an orange-amber color with a an off-white head
Flavor: Tastes malty and boozy, the alcohol comes through more here with the light sweetness
Palate: The body is medium-full, it has some stickiness, and some heat too
Overall Impression: This one was solid, but not spectacular. The alcohol is more noticeable than you would like it to be. Still though, it is a solid beer.

Bottle. Clear amber colour with a small beige head. Aroma of caramel, fruit, raisin. Flavour is dark fruit, caramel, but with a strong taste of alcohol. Might win on some more age, as it is the alcohol is a bit to dominant.
