biz82 (1328), austin, Texas, USA Apr 7, 2007 Bottle. Clear and carbonated red with a huge solid head that slowly began to resemble a tree stump. British crystal malt, minerals, CO2 and spicy hop aroma. Straightforward caramel malt flavor, fruioty and clean + lightly tart with supporting maltiness. A bit oxidized. Finishes with perfect bitterness and lingering sticky hops. Pretty good but I would like to have it on draught. Finn (1473), Tromsø, Norway Apr 1, 2007 Can 0,5l - 4,3%. Brown golden coloured. A large creamy tanned head. Strong hoppy aroma with fruity hints. Caramellish flavour. Soft rounded mouthfeel. A bit one dimensional taste, but some bitterness in the aftertaste. A good canned beer. Fukito (604), Buenos Aires, Argentina Mar 31, 2007 Keg at Cerveceria Oldemburg, march 07. Slight herbal aroma, but very shy. Mild flavor, some crystal malts and a pleasant, lingering bright bitter finnish, not bad nor good. Shinny golden color with a creamy, thick white head. Creamy and gentle MF. A good, reliable, keg session bitter. mugabe (215), Sweden Mar 28, 2007 Bottle at home. Pours a beautiful dark ruby colour with a quite thin head. Fresh aroma of hops. Malty flavour with some sweet fruitiness and a nice round bitterness in the finish. Good, solid bitter. JasonG (700), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Mar 26, 2007 Pint can: Pours Pretty dark copper brown color, with medium sized light than head. Aroma has crisp malts, light caramel, notes of cherry and pear.

Decent premium bitter. TheOrange (405), Kent, Ohio, USA Mar 24, 2007 Nice clear copper color with a good sized brown-ish foamy head. Aroma is subtle, mostly caramel hops, and sweetness. Flavor is is true to the aroma, with some additional spice. Clean and dry. Nice beer. TheDog (350), Aarhus, Denmark Mar 21, 2007 Deep copper colour, from the crystal malt.
