[1] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (4/9/2008 9:14:26 AM)
"Pours out in a clear nut brown colour with a rich lasting off-white foam. Nuts, milky chocolate, rubber, hay and orange-peels in the aroma. Medium-bodied with notes of nuts, chocolate, straw, red berries and oranges. Smooth mouthfeel. Long malty finish of nuts, crackers, milky chocolate, sweet oranges and oatmeal. "

[2] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (6/21/2007 6:14:00 PM)
"500 ml bottle, bought in Scarborough. Possibly filtered, but probably not pasteurised. ABV is 5.3%. As a cask ale it was voted "Champion Winter Beer of Britain 1998". Chestnut coloured beer, rich off-white to beige head. Very nice malty aroma with oaky and vinous notes, also caramel and dark fruits. Malty flavour with caramel, some raisiny and vinous notes, moderate hops. Moderate carbonation, soft mouthfeel. A pleasant beer to drink."

[3] Review by jonmoore from United Kingdom who has tried this beer once. (6/22/2006 5:02:20 PM)
"Bottle. Chestnut colour with a thick cream head. Aroma is malty, fruity, hoppy with brown sugar. Flavours are toasted sweet malts, brown sugar and caramel. The solid malts background allows this to get away with a lot of sweet elements yet still remain a drinkable and enjoyable beer."
