MattY1		19 Nov 2011	Marking this as a 5x because it was in tip top condition and full of flavour although not too my taste, reminded me of Bavarian cheese :) but an excellent example of a beer on top form ...

Pedro		08 Oct 2010	WOW!
Alenomore		07 Oct 2010	A new ale, and, being a lover of all ales that are Dark, Chewy and deeply roasted, had to give this the 5*.

BF		20 Sep 2010	Excellent condition, although was somewhat unimpressed by the beer itself. I expected much more from this collaborative brew, especially bearing in mind the reputation of 2 of my most favourite breweries.
