imdownthepub (4043), Banbury, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England Jun 19, 2008 Bottle conditioned, 500ml, from Booths, Longton, Lancs. Darke amber with white head. Quite a pleasing bottled beer, filtered but not pasteurised. There is a dark, burnt treacle note within the malts with a bit of depth to the flavour, there is caramel, quite drying and a dusty, tea like hop which doesn’t deliver a great deal of bitterness. Quite unusual but also quite decent. Magic_dave6 (3752), London, Greater London, England Jun 2, 2008 Cask at the watermill. Alround rating: Balanced, nutty floural and grassy, pritty unexciting stuff and i didnt finish the half. M0RHI (1005), Luxembourg, Luxembourg Nov 23, 2007 Cask, Alloa BF 07. Slightly cloudy, dark chestnut colour, thin bubbly off-white head. Nose is meaty maltiness, some light hops and plenty of warming stock. Mouth is malty and very dry, some more beefy bovril tones, some ashtray and burnt malt. The kind of beer that would hold a spoon upright. Ungstrup (11137), Frederiksberg, Denmark Sep 12, 2007 Bottled - clearly filtered, but I don’t know if it has been pasteurized. A hazy amber beer with a thin lazing orange head. The aroma is sweet with hoppy notes of flowers and elderberries. The flavor is sweet with light notes of bread and sulphur, as well as very light notes of malt. A somewhat thin flavor. henrikb (1094), Aarhus, Denmark Sep 12, 2007 Bottle - Beautiful deep amber body, very small white head; Very small a bit strange nose, caramel malty, clear rose notes, peach, dry pine needles; A bit thin body, bitter and a little sweet, soft texture but not big; Medium long finish with lots of malt to it, at first some flowery sweetness, later yeasty dry, yeast aromas as well, lemon peel, pine, all very balanced. Generally balanced but a bit strangely composed.
