3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Very sweet caramel aroma, very much an amber or red ale smell. In aroma and taste, this sweetness calms down after half a glass as the light-medium bitterness starts balancing things out. Also at this stage I start getting very faint hints of brine. Pine pulled from the ocean after a storm, maybe. 330ml bottle is too small. Like my favourite amber ales, this one is just starting to cook when you finish the bottle. I wonder if I had another bottle now, would my rating get higher? At 6.8%, I know *I* would get higher.
