Cloudy ruby with a lasting off-white head. Fruity aroma with dates, spice and caramel. Dry, fruity, malty flavour. It’s complex, but quite alcoholic.

Hazy and cloudy brown coloured body with a thinish tan head. Aroma of apples, corn, malt, sugar and a tad of spice. Medium-bodied; Assertive fruits, malt and a bit of alcohol coming out immediately. Gives way to a pungent effervescence showing some sour notes, but mostly strong malty flavours with sweetness and alcohol. Overall, a potent and complex beer - with more malt and fruit notes than yeastie & light flavours. Great to try, I’m definitely happy I picked this up! I sampled this 33 cL swing-top bottle (best by 26-june-2010) purchased from Beer Mania in Bruxelles, Belgium on 17-November-2008, sampled on the Eastern Shore of Virginia on 28-February-2009.

[i] [b] Bottle picked up at Westholme Londis Stores, Goring on Thames, Oxon consumed 16-06-08 [/i] [/b] Reddy brown with large off white head, I like the commercial description I reckon that whoever penned that must have had about half a dozen of these before putting pen to paper. toffee, rich christmas cake fruitiness, alcohol is very much in evidence, very malty, some brandy soaked bananaeyness is there, I liked this.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown, golden, and with a slowly collapsing light tan head. Malt dense and fruity aroma with a light yeasty spice note. Flavour holds a mild overripe fruity note to a nice and solid caramel malt flavour and a light yeasty spice note. Yeasty, malty and towards light bitter finish. Nice one.
