Commercial Description:
Cask & Bottled;
A historically accurate beer based on the recipe devised on the 8th of February 2007. Recreated using the finest coloured malts which provide the complex sweet malt character which initially arouses the senses. Like a fine cheese cake the biscuit base has a smooth and creamy layer that both satisfies and entices. Culminating with a delicate fruit topping of blackcurrant and tinges of citrus to refresh the participant, complimented fully by the crisp dry bitter finish.

DFW tasting 2008. Thanks again to bu11zeye for sharing! Pours a light amber with a thin head. Aroma is slightly hoppy like an IPA style. flavor is the same, maybe there are cascades in this thing? I really liked it for an amber. Cheers!

Thanks to TimE for providing the bottle. A very orange copper glow on this brew. Aroma is fruity and floral with noticeable bitter hops. Flavor is of sweet malts, citrus fruit, bitter but only on the sides of the tongue. The flavor doesn’t last very long. Good, but not great.

Bomber poured a clear amber with a small lingering light amber head. Aromas of carmel, earthiness and light fruit. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp with a dry finish. Flavors of carmel, light earthiness and a hint of grapefruit rind with a crisp dry lingering moderatly bitter finish.

Bottle (batch 001). Head is initially large, frothy, off-white, mostly lasting. Body is clear light amber. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (toasted grain, cookie, caramel), moderately hoppy (flowers, apricot, orange), with a hint of dried mango. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation. A damned fine Bitter. As this warmed, I kept waiting for dough, metal, or diacetyl aromas to spring out, but they never did. Refreshingly assertive bitterness of the low-alpha type and thus very clean...virtually perfect balance that makes it extremely hard to stop drinking. Not "exciting" per se (the aroma is attractive, but fairly straightforward), but then again the style rarely is. Remarkably enjoyable to just sit back and quaff...would be a perfect pub offering. Pretty much flawless. Attention to detail was clearly devoted during brewing...not a single rough edge to be found by my senses. Major kudos to the brewer on this one.

Hazy golden colour with a little white head. Aroma of peach, malt and hops. Flavour of hops, malt and ends up bitter and dry.
