Double Bastard Ale

Apperance: The brew is clouded deep amber with hints of oranges, a yellow off-white head, that settles slowly, has little lacing but good curtains. (4)
Aroma: The smell has toffee, raisins, sherry in it. But also tropical mango and grape-fruit peel, and pine needles. (4)
Taste: The taste is sweet, crystalline sugar, vanilla, butter scotch, oatmeal, fruits, apples, peaches and mango. Sherry and lemon and grape-fruit zest. (4)
Palate: Medium high carbonation, small bubbles, soft, oily and a bit alcoholic. A long dry finish. (4)
Overall: This even if a bit young was very good. (4.5)
