Copper,thin head,ring of creamy foam eventually. Aroma of yeast,english caramel grain butterscotch-mildly a little bread maybe toasted malt and some alcohol.Bitterness in this has a pulling effect to the tip of the tounge,kind of a mild deep roast type bitterness. Somewhat creamy but more sweet with caramel malt and a sticky finish with an astringency.Pretty sweet with a yeasty taste and some harsh bitterning.But its not bitter.If you know what im sayin.

355 ml can @ Patricks. Almost clear, amber body with a light off-white head. Fine aroma of malt, caramel and fruit. Flavor is quite light malty, some fruit, light caramel and decent bitterness. Medium body. Sounds pretty in the middle everywhere, and somehow that’s what it is – but in a fine and well composed way. A really nice thirst-quencher.

Can at Oliver Twist, Stockholm, Sweden. Pours a dark amber with a nice thick foam. Aroma has a lot of caramel and some floral notes. Taste is slightly sweet with a medium bitterness that sticks with you from the sip all the way down. Very nice balance to this beer.
