Bottle from Morrisons. Amber red. Aroma of toast, biscuit, caramel, spice, little bit of earth and some citrussy hops. Nice and refreshing with a pleasantly sour-fruity hop finish.

500ml bottle picked up at OddBins, Oxford. Served lightly chilled at home. Inviting smell of toffee malt. Flavour has got some layers of medium sweet malts supported by dark spices and ending with a bitter note. Clear and good looking rusty brown body under a thin, but lasting, off-white head. Nice laceworks on the glass. Medium bodied (Tromsø, 18.07.2008).

Bottle. High creamy and lasting off-white head. Hazy dark red body. Cherries coloured actually. Cocoa dominated aroma. Cocoa also in the flavor but more spicy than expected. Unfortunately low hopped and a bit too watery. Low carbonation, short aftertaste.

Århus2008. 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing tan head. Aroma and initial flavour is mild spiced and of light fruity hops notes. Again a light house character with the sweet hops impression. Medium dry malt base before the finish which goes into a dry and bitter spiced hops finish.

Clear amber with tiny white head. Sweet fruity with caramel, ripe fruits and toasted malt. Finishes bitter.
