[i] [b] Bottle that was brought over in a Old Chimneys case of beer along with our beer order for Merton Beer Festival, thanks to Marc Bartram [/i] [/b] Poured Redy/brown in colour, cloves and alcohol are the first things you notice on the nose. Taste is very spicy, quite sweet really clovery, warming up it gets better it even has a medicinal quality to it. Liked this but quite unusual, Loz thought it was great.

Bottle at home 1500 rating .... Deep hazy red ... sharp vinegar tones with fruit malt nose... good body ... little sweetness soft toffee ... some malt conterbalanced with sour edge at back of throat ... multilayered ... This is one of the odd beers that im not sure about the sourness. should it be there or not. It doesnt ruin the beer, but nor is it my thing. This is also growing on me more the more i have.
