Mildly fruity, toasty malt sroma with light spicy hops apparent. Clear, copper coloured beer with decent white head that lasts nicely. Pleasant malt character with beautifully understated fruity esters and a gentle balancing bitterness in the finish. Creamy mouthfeel and light medium body. Very thirst-quenching. A great session beer. Bottle.

Thanks Lubiere. Clear caramel in color wiht a white head. Fruity aroma with some malt notes. Light and drinkable beer. Nice session brew.

Via trade with Lubiere and Capflu. Clear carmel color, whiteish head. Lightly fruity aroma, with some malt notes. Flavor is light and drinkable, with a slight hop and some carmel malt. Good session brew.

On draft. Pours an amber/brown colour with moderate white head. I didn’t get much in the nose just some biscuity malt. This really does have a lot of lfavour for a 4% beer. At first it was fruity with a bit of bitterness on the finish. That fruitiness faded as the beer warmed and it turned into a biscuity malt flavour with hop bitterness in the finish. Quite nice.

On tap at the winking judge in Hamilton, Ontario. Pours a slight head with a dark amber/copper body. Aroma is spicy/malty with some bitterness as well. Taste is bitter, spicy, and maybe even sweet. Nice bitter aftertaste as well. A really good light beer. Was suprised to see that it is 4%. Nice.

A different beer in different circumstances. On cask, it is delightful – very flavourful nice balance, all at 4%. On draught and in the bottle, there isn’t much to distinguish it, although it is still drinkable. But if you see it on cask, give it a try. Ratings based on cask.

Great coppper color, small frothy head. Complex aroma, little bit of everything. Does live up to label as being flavourful for a 4% beer. Quite quaffable, would probably buy again.

hop and bitter. Drinkable. my mates thought it was bitterness and water. Some sharp spice. Orange-yellow appearance and cider-spice aroma. Dry bitter aftertaste. Had it later on cask, and not as tasty.
