Doppelganger (1216), Oxford, Oxfordshire, England Feb 19, 2007 Gravity, Dover BF. Dark copper with an off-white layer of coarse bubbles. Warm fruity honey sweetness, cinnamon and marmalade. Lots for fruit in the flavor as well--seems like a blending of ester and hop contribution. Rather sweet, but finishes fairly dry, and combined with a touch of astringency, manages to stay refreshing. SilkTork (3950), Rochester, Kent, England Feb 15, 2007 Dover Beer Fest 2007. A strong old fashioned premium bitter with lashings of English hops. A Chris o type of beer. harrisoni (5474), Ashford, Kent, England Feb 5, 2007 Cask gravity at White Cliffs BF 2007. Chestnut colour with lasting bubbly off white head. Grapefruit piney hop aroma. Great open beer. Good aroma, smooth and full in mouth with some raspberry flavoured malt and then more grapefruit hop on finish.
