Ian | ![]() | 09 Jun 2007 | Fine, could have sunk a few of these. |
Andrew | ![]() | 28 Sep 2006 | Ice cold, umm not sure that's a good thing but anyway... Slightly creamy and fizzy mouth feel. Loads of burnt sweetness with a slight milkyness to it. The finish was of sweeter malt with a tight burnt bitterness to it. |
Ian | ![]() | 12 Aug 2006 | When you have this when it's good, it's stunning. Bitter choc, good malts, but creamy and drinkable. Flavour is bitter choc and cream. Brilliant |

Ian | ![]() | 09 Mar 2005 | Just so creamy and full of gorgeous malt flavours as to be a revelation from the very first. I keep fearing that the quality of this beer with cease to amaze me, but it hasn't happened yet |
