detroitsteel (209), Greater London, England Aug 13, 2007 Pint at the Roebuck, Richmond. Lots of hops, and some vegetable earthiness. A flavour that reminded me of musty herb jars (?!). I found it a dense beer to drink and the finish was very heavy. I would have believed it was stronger than 4.5% Not bad tho’.
TEJA (94), Stockholm, Sweden Aug 27, 2008 Draught at OT.
A perfect pint (american pint glas) with just the right foam that stays untill the pint is finniched. Small english hop aroma. Fresh hop taste with bitter finnish that stays. Also some grape present. tompete (51), Burlington, Iowa, USA Jul 7, 2008 Cask, Ålborg, Denmark at The Wharf. Pale yellow with a large bubbled fast disappearing white head. A subtle aroma, maybe a suggestion of hops, but no malt. Very light body and flavor, a little malt. Definitely one of the smoothest beers for its bitterness that I’ve had. It is nicely bitter in the aftertaste also, but very smooth. It makes you want to keep drinking. anders37 (2582), Malmö, Sweden Oct 15, 2007 Cask @ Market Porter, Borough. Pours a clear copper color with a small off-white head. Has a malty fruity caramel aroma with some hoppy hints. Slightly roasted malty and fruity caramel aroma with some hoppy hints. Long malty bitter finish. RichardGretton (2638), Leicestershire, England Oct 14, 2007 Cask@Quorn Octoberfest, 2007. Pale yellow beer with a grassy, dry and well hopped aroma and flavour. Overall a nice beer. Rastacouere (5270), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Sep 19, 2007 Cask. Sticky white head stays atop the clear amber shade. Quite hoppy nose, mostly floral, though also spicy and peppery. Celery salt notes make for an original feature. Minimally buttery, just a hop-geared, paradoxically, Scottish ale. Highly aromatic, firm bitterness and well-balanced in the end.
