Egy igen finom "ánglius" bitter,amit szerencsére nálunk is belehet szerezni.Szép vöröses-barna színű,habja is enyhén barnás és igen tömör,tartós.Illatában már érezni a komlót és a maláta édességét.Íze igazán kerek és kiegyensúlyozott.Utóíze száraz,komlósan kesernyés.Igazi beszélgetős,barátkozós sör.

Pours clear, brown, with a fine, moderate head. Very thin aroma of caramel and hops. Flavor has a strong bittering hop profile and a lot of toffee and caramel flavor.

19.25oz bottle-pours a big foamy light tan head and amber/red color. Aroma is medium malt-somewhat sweet toffee, fruit, vanilla, some peat. Taste is medium malt-toffee, earthy/metallic hops. Finish is metallic. OK/mild carbonation. Trade with jwc215.

500ml Bottle: Pours rust in colour, almost no head from my bottle. The aroma promises burnt sugar, licorice, citrus fruit, and sadly, a bit of metal. The metal continues to come through in the flavour, as well as lots of bitter hops and sweet UK-style malting and nutty aftertastes. Quite watery, but well balanced and flavoured.
