Commercial Description:
A traditional amber, complex, sweet, malty ale, with a touch of peat in the finish, which is characteristically lightly hopped. Brewed from a blend of English malts and a single pitching of Kent Goldings, this beer is fermented at a lower temperature to suppress formation of esters, reinforcing the beer’s complex malt flavour profile.

Hand pump sample from brewpub. Mild tangy balsamic notes, neutral fruity hops and apple skins. Very little aroma overall. Copper brown clear with little head. Medium body with light smooth carbonation. Starts with light malty apples, a thin peaty veil and light touch of alcohol. Nutty dry hop finish with smooth nutty after. A nice ale.

Scotch-colored with big bubbles. Roast crystal malt aroma, rather flat, and with well-masked alcohol content. Ok, but lacks adequate carbonation.

Body is a ruby hue, nice white head. Aroma is very malty, doughy, with caramel, and plums. Taste is light caramel, dried fruit, watery chocolate. Body is watery. Original 3.2 rating. Re-Rate On cask, was great, couldn’t get enough of this. Plenty of depth, caramel, maltiness, really great stuff.

Pours a red/brown body with an offwhite large head, quickly diminishes. Aroma is strong peat and earthy with some malt backbone. Flavour starts off malty then kicks you with peat. Finish is slightly sweet. Unique and flavourful.

Dark ruby color with little head. Sweet malt aroma. Almost tangy. Sweet tangy flavor. Very clean and smooth on the palate. Very easy to drink. Delicious.
