Cask. A hazy red-brown beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma is very malty combined with a note of caramel and a touch of alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and alcohol, leading to a dry alcoholic finish.

Bottled @ tasting cgarvieuk. Bottle includes peeled garlic clove. Hazy orange colour, white head. Repulsive in-your-face aroma of very strong old, cooked garlic. Hesitant first sip tastes like sweet malts and fruits, some caramel. Bit of garlic that disappears fast. Credits for the novelty factor, but the smell is awful.

Cask. Hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Nutty aroma with evident alcohol. Full-bodied, nutty but completely dominated by fat Bamberg smoke - very unusual. Alcohol and some hops in the finish. 220110
