Soft and reddish. Mineral-packed sulphurous aroma opening up with resinous, spicy hops as it warms. Hints of cherry, marzipan, Rebel 12 and....onion? Soggy egg custard dough and pastry like Badger, dunked vanilla biscuit, more sulphur, chalk and sturdy hop bitterness on the end. Pretty decent.

Bottle from asda, rating from a good while ago as i found it at my dads. Aroma is rich typically brakspear malt with peppery floural hop resin. Taste is similar and far fuller than expected for such a low %.

Fullbodied and rich in aroma for being such a weak ale. Plenty of hops, some somke and resin. Long lingering aftertaste.

Bottle. A amber beer with a big white head. The aroma is light fruity and of ashtray, so is the taste, but bitter and dry. Medium body with a bitter dry finish.

This attractive amber beer is well-balanced and perfectly drinkable but the flavour is not complex enough to make it particularly noteworthy.

from crackedkettle.com - clear and bright amber colour, almost no foam; flowery hoppiness, notes of caramel and honey; smooth and medium-bodied; a touch of bitterness before a long flowery and caramelish aftertaste
