Amber colour with a white head. Light sweet roasted aroma and taste, bitter. Medium body and a light bitter dry finish.

[Bottle that my Dad shared with me - cheers!] Reddish amber with a small off-white head and a light fizz. Mellow fruity berry flavour with a moderate bitterness. Good and tasty especially for a pasteurised beer. My Dad had got a bit confused when he served this & said it was Wells Bombardier, so it may have just tasted good compared to my extremely low expectations for that beer!

Dark brown clear beer, small head. Aroma is nonexistent. Taste is watery but has some chocolate malty character.

Medium beige head. Clear deep amber body with light carbonation. Rye crisp bread and lemon zest aroma with dusty caramelly notes. Dryish malty grainy taste with dusty lemon zest notes. Mid-to-light body. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish lemon zest and generic fruit aftertaste with roasty dusty notes. A nice, drinkable, pleasant bitter. (0.5l bottle, Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

NIce hop on the nose, color deep honey golden and the taste is woody, slightly bitter hop but little watery at the end. Over-all a good beer for the price.

Malty and mild hoppy nose. Pale large lace laying head. Dark golden color. Malty mild hopped taste with some grassiness. A nice bitter.

(Bottle): Pours amber colour with off white head, nice lacing. Aroma is earthy, grassy hops with a hint of malt and fruits. Taste is a somewhat sweet, hint of hops and caramel with a medium bitter finish. Little bit watery but overall an average, nice tasting beer.

(Bottle) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, apricots, treacle-toffee, toast and citrus. Malty, fruity taste with notes of dried fruit, orange peel, nuts, dark bread and a certain citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Well balanced and quite nice.

dark chesnut colour, head disappeared within a minute of pouring, mild aroma of malts, smooth texture, earthy flavour with a tiny hint of bitterness
