Courtesy of Degarth. Pours dark brown with tan head. The aroma is mild with notes of dark malts, chocolate malts, faint roastiness, light dark fruity esters and some earthiness. The taste is roasty dark and moving toward toastiness. I get a bit of chocolate mixing with raisins and other dark fruity ester notes. Smooth and drinkable.

Courtesy of CigarCityBrew. The can pours dark caramel copper with thin off white head. The aroma is a bit of malty sweetness followed by some citrus tartness as well as plums, dates and figs. Not bad. The taste isn’t as nice as the aroma with some moderate roasted malts that moved toward grainy malts and cereal. There’s some spicy hops and vague hop bitterness that seems a bit metallic too. Interesting.

330ml Bottle - Copper brown in colour with a foamy head. The aroma is quite fruity and sweet with raisins and toffee as welll as some slightly metallic notes. Fruity and slightly bitter taste initially although this quickly fades. Raisins feature in the taste along with a biscuity element. Not too bad.
