| Dubbel |  | 30 Apr 2009 | Smells like a herb garden. A solid porter well spiced and very drinkable. I still think the coriander works better with the lighter Umbel Ale though. |

| Ian | | 17 Nov 2007 | In brilliant condition, this slipped down perfectly. Good balance of dark malts, great mouthfeel and that hint of spice on the end from the coriander. |

| Andrew |  | 24 Jun 2006 | Haven't seen this beer for about 4 years so it was a real treat to see it on. Jet black beer with a creamy head. It smelt peppery and had a sharp perppery corriander taste with a creamy underlying texture. |

| Ian | | 01 Oct 2005 | Dark ruby colour with good spicey caramel and smooth in the mouth. Really quite like it, but not a lot of coriander, definite spicey edge with a bit of bacon? |
