| Alenomore |  | 26 Dec 2012 | Again, very nice. |
| Alenomore | | 15 Dec 2012 | One of Harvey's best. A true winter warmer. Two halves I bought went well with the two malts my friend bought.. |
| Alenomore | | 14 Dec 2012 | A good nightcap. A deep, sweetish hue. Spot on. |
| Alenomore | | 09 Dec 2012 | Superb. But just a half size, post dinner aperitif today? |
| Pedro |  | 01 Dec 2012 | Badged as 7.5% this time! |
| Alenomore | | 01 Dec 2012 | A welcome sight. A good, rich, full flavoured winter warmer. A top seasonal at a premium price of £5.20. Possibly the highest price I've ever paid for an ale in the County Town, but very enjoyable. |
| Alenomore | | 29 Dec 2011 | Superb as ever. Good to get this again. A proper nightcap? |

| ChrisE | | 26 Dec 2009 | I was given a pint by mistake when I ordered a half. Very enjoyable, it reminded me of Courage Imperial Russian Stout. |

| Andrew |  | 03 Feb 2006 | Imagin a municipal swimming pool full of raisin juice. Very raisiny with sweet alcohol finish |
| Ian | | 03 Feb 2006 | Dark reddish brown with beige head. Really quite pleasant if slightly sticky sweet, quite a meaty aroma with lots of orange. Nice dry hop finish and some boiled sweet. Better on the second half pint |
