3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 bhensonb (7577) - Woodland, California, USA - SEP 7, 2007
500 ml bottle from Liquid Solutions. Aroma of malt, caramel, maybe nuts, and that wonderful fruity floral hop of the English bitters. Nice amber color with an off-white head that laced and stayed. Thin to medium bodied, near creamy carbonation. The flavor starts with floral hop, quickly followed by biscuit and caramel malt. The finish is malty, but not all that sweet, fruity, and bitter. In the end it’s dry and bitter. Wonderful stuff.
