Medium head upon pouring with a full body.Quite hoppy with a pleasant flowery aftertaste.For some reason it reminded me of several Shepherd Neame brews.

Poured from the bottle, a light brown with a medium frothy head which disappeared. A very malty aroma, slightly spicy. A fruity malty taste, with a good bitterness in the mouth.

A red beer with a small beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of fruit especially peach as well as yeast. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of peach and a dry hoppy end.

Bottled: Amber coloured. Thin off white head. Hoppy and light fruity aroma. Buttery, watery flavour with som light hopsnotes. Is thin bodied with light bitterness in the end.

Bottled. Amber, not much head. Toffee- and perfume-aroma. Rather sweet with some chocolate and toffee and fine bitterness.
