Strong Ale di chiara ispirazione anglosassone, nel bicchiere si presenta di un bel colore ambra carico, profondo, con riflessi rubini. All’olfatto è molto ricca, anche se non pesante, evidenziando note etiliche, di fichi secchi, mallo di noce, caramello, frutti di bosco (mirtilli sotto spirito); in bocca è di grande corpo, rotonda, etilica, potente, ma dal finale pulito grazie alla bella luppolatura inglese (East Kent Goldings), arricchito da ricordi di genziana e liquirizia. Molto lunga, di retrolfattivo robusto, nel finale emergono note sciroppate e minerali. Potente, equilibrata, di struttura, molto ben costruita.

Bottle, private tasting
Cloudy amber...more murky than cloudy actually. Yeasty, tart aroma with notes of raisin and chocolate. Quite yeasty on the palate as well, in that "bottle conditioned beer that’s still going" sort of way. Hints of red currants, vague toast and breadyness. A little fizzy...there’s that overactive bottle ferment again. Finishes slightly tart with a vague fruitiness. The tartness in the nose that I thought held promise I guess was unintentional. Hmm, that was the best part.

A huge off-white head rises above this clear dark amber brew. The aroma is malt dominated with lots of fruityness. Smooth and sweet but not overly complex.

Pours cloudy amber with a small head. Aroma is present, slightly tart fruit, slighty sweet. Taste has a slight hop bite character, a malty, biscuity flavor. But mainly nothin disinctive anywhere in this beer. Its just kind of there. Slightly tangy aftertaste. Really forgettable if it wasnt for the price tag and the cool bottle wrapper.
