Bottle at Taps Beer Bar, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear dark brown with a frothy light tan head. The aroma is dry malt light caramel. The flavour is moderate bitter with a medium roasty dry biscuit malt, light hop light liqourice bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A little light and a little too liqourice bitter for me, but id certainly order another so it can’t be so bad.

The flavour is moderate bitter with a soft fruity light resin hop palate. Moderate to light bodied with soft carbonation. I’m no fan of red ales, but this is one of the better ones I’ve had.

Aromas of coffee, grapefruit and honey. Lovely winter beer with plenty of roasted malt and hops in the mouth. The alcohol is very prominent in the back of the throat, but I’m enjoying that. It’s dry as a chip.

Very dark with a slight tan head. Excellent rich roasty aroma. Light to medium body with nice carbonation. This beer has a very unusual and surprisingly flavour. The aroma and appearance lines up you expectations for a rich velvety stout or similar, but the foretaste is sour, in the best possible way, but it’s a sour beer initially. The richer sweeter dark malt flavours then steadily develop in a way that complements the sourness wonderfully. The is a coffeeish bitterness in the finish. Overall this is a very unusual and clever beer that works very well. The mix of two styles, and the surprise value of the mismatch between initial taste and aroma and appearance is great.
