Bottle Conditioned, 6 Year old Morlands version. Deep amber red with loose bubbly head. My last remaining Hens Tooth from Morlands as was and kept in perfect condition (despite the clear bottle!) Deep rich velvety smooth plummy, peachy beer with a sherry like quality, little bitterness or hop overlay, this had been absorbed by the silky alcohol notes. Very Very good at this age, from this brewery, its gone now though.

50cl bottle from Jans Wine and Boos #2 (Tampa, FL). Pours a clear dark amber color with a one finger foamy white head that settles slowly. Some lacing of the glass. Aroma is rich and malty with notes of a faint sweetness (honey, caramel) and a little bread, yeast and spice. Flavor is sweet malt, honey, caramel, grass, slight hoppy bitterness. Generally light body with a slightly sweet, slightly bitter finish.

Coloração âmbar levemente turva. Creme denso e consistente. Na primera impressão do aroma, muito toffee, ervas, além da presença de malte-caramelo lúpulo. No paladar, mais malte-caramelo e um leve frutado. Final longo e doce, com mais presença de ervas/lúpulo. Excelente.

Bottle. A very strong flowery aroma, light lemon and some soap. A huge creamy white head, later on it gets more rocky, quite long lasting. The body is clear and orange. The taste is moderate bitter and light acidic with a long duration. The carbonation is lively, the body is medium strong and the texture is dry. A astringent finish.

Bottle. Amber colour with a thin white head. Malty nose with hints of fruits. The flavour is sweet malty with a slightly bitter and dry finish. Medium bodied. Very drinkable brew.
