Tasting Summary

These comments are the opinion of the individual reviewer and represent what they thought of the beer on a particular day in a particular pub. If a review is less favourable, it may be because the beer suffered somewhere in the supply chain between them and the brewery.

Ian		27 Jan 2007	I had this at the first White Cliffs beer festival I went to in Dover and then I found it too sweet and "purple" and had to chuck the rest away. I had it on the cellar run here and it was fantastic. So I had to have a half when it came on in the bar. Great dark fruits, deep ruby colour with lasting thin dark beige head. Dark cherry/plum aroma. Very attractive dark fruit aroma, some syrupy malt fruit in mouth, some tingly hop on finish.

Ian		14 Apr 2006	Ruby colour with thin beige head. Vinous on aroma and in mouth. Good fruit. Very syrupy in mouth with a bit of alcohol heat. Very malty, thick and syrupy. Not sure that I could drink a lot of this. Fruity on end of the dark syrupy type, some jamminess.
