Bottle@Home. Metallic aroma, light fruity and some herbs as well. Amber color, beige head, good lace. Sweet, light bitter, herbal, some caramel, malty, light sticky. Not badly brewed but I didn’t fancy the aroma and it’s too sweet to be refreshing.

For me, beer can hardly get better than this. This is a beautiful reddish copper with a huge, light tan head that slowly shrinks to a thin permanent top and nice lacing. The smell, very English, is wonderful It has toasted bread, leaves and tea, spices, caramel, grain, hay, stewed apples, fresh fruit, dried fruit,and nuts. The flavour is complex and exciting but restrained. It hasa lot of leaves and tea, nuts, caramelized dried fruit, juice, toasted bread and grain, hints of citrus and nuts, black pepper, and red wine. The finish is hoppy, crisp and clean, yet long and complex.

500 ml bottle. Clear coppery orange colour, creamy off-white head, nice lacing. Simple sweet malty aroma with a hint of hops. Slightly roasty and dry malty flavour, with some fruits and a nice dry finish.

Bottle from River’s Bend. Poured clear brown color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate sweet malty aroma. Medium body with a dry bitter texture. Medium bittersweet flavor with a smooth toasted bitter finish of average duration. Solid drinkable brew.
