Aroma is nicely nuanced and malty. dark bread, nuts, bit woody. Mahogany brown bit just little bit red, long but thin head is creamy, ok lacing. Medium body, soft and round, creamy, slightly bitter, sweet, good aromatic finish, soft carbonation. Tasty one to enjoy.

Pours clear reddish copper with a mediocre white head. Aroma of sweet, syrupy maltiness with berries, fruits and butter - seems slightly too sweet for me. Taste is also sweet, malty and fruity. Notes of caramel, dried fruits, some raisin. Should be bitter but isn’t really, hoppiness is pretty mild. Palate is medium bodied, nicely full given the strength, smooth and sticky. Looks and feels OK but doesn’t really have much depth.

Tap @ Pub Graali, Oulu. Something about these sweet and flat beers make them almost undrinkable for me and get a headache during drinking them.

080213. Tap at Soho, Tampere. Pours clear amber with a small head. Aroma crystal malts, berries. Low Palate. Very English. Not Bad.

Draught at St Michael, Oulu. Colour is reddish copper with small white head. Aromas and flavours are berries, dryness and some sweet malts.

Bready, yeasty aroma. Body is thin and watery. This has a yeasty, sharp edge. Some sweet, fruity blackberry can be found in the background.

brown 500ml bottle, best before 15 Jan 2012, poured into a UK pint sleeve in Sep 2011. Auburn body with a cream/off-white head of bubbles. The smell was of dark red berry pie, fruits and pastry combined to give a distinct and different aroma to your average beer. Tart in both ways, meaning sharp and fruity, the taste was the same, an alcoholic fruit tart. Really liked it, interesting, well blended and certainly unusual.

Draught at Bishops Arms, Linköping. Amber beer with an ok offwhite head. Malty aroma, metal notes, fruity. Malty flavor, some metal, bready, some bitterness. Fruity malty finish.

Copper color with a small off-white head. Sweet malt in the aroma with toffee and fruity hops. Flavour is sweet malt, toffee, fruity hops and some berries. Slightly bitter finish.

500ml Bottle - Copper with lively carbonation and a small head. Dried fruit, caramel and blackberries in the aroma. Fruity and slightly nutty taste with malt, raisins and blackberries detected. Enjoyable.
