Bottle picked up at The Little Beer Shop, Ludlow, Salop. Deep amber in colour with frothy head, aroma was sweet and malty, taste was also quite sweet, malty and fruity although there was little in the way of plums noticed in the taste which had a little sourness on the edge, if truth be known I rather liked this it was a very reasonable beer even if I didn’t get the plums or prunes.

(Bottle 33 cl) Warm, orangey brown with a creamy, beige head leaving some lacework. Sweet aroma of roasted malt and caramel. Full - but not overly so - body, especially considering the alcohol. Marked accents of roasted malt and brown sugar, yet it manages to end fairly dry without much bitterness. The alcohol is very well hidden. 100307

Stubby bottle, best before 01/02/11 printed on cap, poured into a Leffe rounded goblet glass. Pours with a medium strong head and a muddy deep brown color, absolutely no clarity. Aroma is strong, dark sweet rye bread and liquified raisons. Aroma has a strong kvass like aroma but heavier and sweeter. Just an overall dark sweetness. Taste is also liquified bread sweetness. Very strong without going into the sweet tooth area. Works well with the nature of the beer. The great thing is it finishes rather light, refreshing, and dry with no bitterness. Body is heavy but off set by a slightly stronger carbonation that tingles the cheeks. Very surprised how nice this came out.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours an almost clear amber with a dense and lasting, off-white head leaving laces. Sweetish aroma of caramel and malt. Full body with a heavy malt sweetness and distinct caramel notes. A surprising bitterness ensures that this doesn’t get too cloying. 080207

Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a ruby chestnut color with a huge brown head. The aroma was a savory mix of raisins and brown sugar. The flavor was tangy and sweet with elements of raisins, molasses, brown sugar and vague ripened fruits. The finish is fruity with a lingering malty molasses note. Very nice.
