Bottle as shown. Pours a clear orange golden with a quickly diminishing white head. The aroma is a corn malt and cereal. Medium mouthfeel with a corn malt and honey. Not too much going on with this one.

Milk stout with caramel added. Opaque very dark brown beer. Surprisingly flavoursome - light lactose sweetness over some unsubtle caramel malt. Just a trace of roasty malt flavour. Semi dry finish with more lactose sweetness. Okay - a bit clunky!

how does this get a 39 rating?!? really? seriously? this was delicious, one of the easiest beers to drink ive ever had. what, just because a beer isnt in double digits abv, it cant be good? this was absolutely enjoyable and i cant wait to have another one. maybe the new definition of a winter session beer.

(Bottle at One Pint Pub Italian weeks ’10) The beer poured black with quite ok looking head. Aroma was really metallic and bit papery. Like drinking sniffing a canned beer straight from the can. The flavours were malts, carboard, sweetness and again metallicness. Aftertaste was sweet. Not good. The beer may have been better when it was fresher.

Bottle. An attractive pour: Dark brown, caramel highlights, with a brown head. Very faint aroma of roasted malt. Flavor is thin, some light coffee. Body is light to medium, fizzy. Very little action in the finish, almost no aftertaste. Just lackluster on pretty much all fronts.

Draught in Aviano, Italy. Bright yellow. Crisp peppery taste. Typical lager. Not bad, but not very interesting.

Pour is a bright gold with a large pillowy white head. Aroma is dull grain. Flavor is a touch better with some grassy malts but still nothing really good.

pours dark brown, mahogany head. aroma of sweet caramel, grainy, light soy like aroma. flavor, little watery, sweet caramel malts followed by some hop bitetrness, caramel finish with a touch of lactose and dark fruits. Low carbonation. Something about the finish that I just could not get into, like some rancid/moldy lactose flavor that made the finish a little off.
