Blair		24 Dec 2009	Very rich and complex, little covonia and spice, loads of chocolate. Lovely beer, always a challengee to see how many you can drink before falling over. I managed four.

KB		10 Feb 2009	What a selection of taste in this beer. Certainly different but first class
Mick		06 Feb 2009	Not quite sure it's the best beer ever brewed by man but it's in the top 10 for sure. Lots of flavours going on, including a subtle sweet almost cough mixture taste, very nice. Anybody remember Victory V sweets?
Ken		06 Feb 2009	Probably the best beer ever brewed by man

Brian		02 Feb 2007	I love Dark Star beers and saved this one until late. Probably a little too late as my notes are a bit hazy. There was plenty of dark malty flavour and an alcoholic dryness. I liked it but it wasn't what I was expecting.

Ian		14 Apr 2006	Very dark brown colour with lasting dark beige head. Hoppy coffee aroma. Some liquorice. Intense aromas. Syrupy in mouth with dark treacle flavours. Unctious oily feel in mouth, thick but with only some alcohol burn. This really woke me up. Finish has dryness and more dark treacle. I liked it.
