5.0%, amber with a nice head, nice hop aroma, fruity hopy taste, quite a nice bitter for a supermarket’s (Asda Wal-Mart) own beer.

500ml bottle (ChrisO’s, post RBESG2011 Sunday) BB200904, drunk 201108
Sweet malty aroma, dull. Dark, but in a clear bottle. Naughty naughty, 4 becomes 3. Toffee and caramel dominate the taste. Super dry despite that. This has aged past its BB very well. Was probably quite a different beer when younger though. Finish is more toffee.

Bottle 500ml. clear glass @ ChrisOs.

Bottled. A nut-brown beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of hops, elderflowers, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, malt, and caramel, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Good all round ale. Nice creamy head. Malty taste which lingers. Great value too.
