Bottled. Butterscotchy aroma with musty tea leaf hop back-up, and faint (milk) chocolate. Clear red and lacy. Pleasant bittering hop and caramelised malt. A teaspoon of soil. Chalk, wood, walnut, caramel, slight chocolate. Solid, flavoursome BB.

[762-20071015] Bottle (w/ jerc). Bit of leafy malt and chocolate in the aroma. Slightly hazy, amber orange body with a quick foamy off-white head. Malty flavour with a little leafy chocolate booze and floral heather. Medium body has a mildly bitter finish. Interesting but mild.

500 ml bottle - pours clear tawny with a very minimal bubbly white head. Clean Goldings aroma along with honey and brown sugar. Flavour fairly benign with some bitterness that builds to a mild finish. More Goldings and a thin caramel malt body. Another decent, though rather uninspiring, brew from St. Peter’s.

Thin, slightly burnt caramel malt flavor. Hoppy/sour aftertaste. Enjoyable but fairly bland.

Dark bitter with a well hopped aroma and a very dry hopped flavour. Overall the beer could be better as it has a medicinal feel to it.

Light orange appearance, little to no head, like all St Peter’s quaint medicine looking bottle. Faint fruity aroma, hint of spruce. Slight toffee in the flavor, some bittersweet hop notes. Tart mouthfeel. Average bitter, nothing to get excited about, but good nonethless for session purposes.
