Amber with a small white head. Aroma of caramel and grain with hay and diacetyl. Dry malt and caramel flavour with a dusty touch

Bottle thanks to crusianbeer. Amber brew with some off-white head. Nose is very malty with some fruity notes. Flavor is slightly metallic with lots of malt.

bottle, thanks to crusianbeer, amber brown color with a typical dry fruit aroma, flavor has some nice mineral notes and bitter fruits

500ml bottle (ChrisO’s, post RBESG2011 Sunday)
Simple dry woody bitter. Taste a bit buttery. Super dry body. Some blue cheese too. Medium palate, OK carbonation. Finish dry and woody. Clearly past its BB, but I think this survived really well, but I do like dry woodiness in older ales.

Bottle shared at a cgarvieuk tasting. Orange amber (not blue - I am disappoint!) with a thin white head that vanishes. Orange, caramel, tea leaves on the nose. Lots of blue cheese on the palate, bready malt too. Reasonably resinous and and slightly bready. Weird off flavours in the linger. Interesting but not for me.

In bottle. Pours a dark golden colour with a lacy white head. Aroma of caramel, tea, treacle and yeast. Stilton flavour upfront, musty hay, caramel and barley. The stilton really lingers! Creamy mouth-feel. Super cheesy!

bottle at home ... copper ... thin bubbly white head ... sweet toffee malt ... light caramel nose ... soft toffee malts ... ligth hints of stilton ... very weird ... light metalic ... quite dull .. with an odd weirdnesss... but definite stilton hints

Bottled. An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt as well as light notes of metal and straw.

Bottle 500ml.

Clear medium yellow amber colour with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, caramel, toffee, butterscotch, some thing stange i do not like - maybe the stilton ! Flavour is moderate to light light heavy sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20110807]

Bottle. Amber copper with an off-white foam. Aromas are toffee malts with citrus and definite creamy, cheese notes. Lightly nutty with weetabix. Flavours are sweet toffee with some roast notes and lemon. The Stilton is evident with a bitter yet creamy character. Dry on the finish. Decent.
