A very well presented beer with a nice thin layer of foam forming the head which sits atop quite a deep copper coloured beer. Hints of fruit and hops escape from the head generating a minor aroma in comparison to other Mildura Brewery beers (eg: Desert Premium Lager).

The flavour is intense and quite complex with distinct flavours in both the initial taste and the aftertaste. Initially you taste quite a strong full bodied malty (chocolate or toffee) ale and the high alcohol content is easily noticable. Thats when the aftertaste starts to begin, a crisp sweet lingering flavour which whilst I can't put my finger on it reminds me of penuts a little.

If you are looking for a complex strong ale to have with your dark meat dishes (eg: steak or game) definately pair this up with it, I imagine it would be a fantastic pairing!
