Gold with a frothy head of modest duration. Aroma a mix of grains, dough and peppercorn. Taste is bitter throughout. Medium-bodied, very dry, with a touch of spice at the end. Ok, and traditional too, but the pervading dry bitterness keeps it from ever feeling refreshing.

A veritable classic, maybe not what it once was however. Amber/brown with a creamy white head. Fruity biscuit malt on the nose, smooth and creamy with that classic floral bitterness, fruity light malt with a sulphurous tang and a dry finish

Ansells Silver Jubilee Strong Ale
Bottle at GBBF '23, day 2 thanks to a Danny rot box raffle, 02/08/23. Chestnut brown with a beige cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is woody, oxidised, malt forward, toffee, vinous, soy sauce. Taste comprises fruit cake, dates, brown bread, toffee, herb, dried fruit esters. Medium plus bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. This has aged very well compared to other knackered examples from this era.

GBBF. Rot box special purchased by Dan. A mild haze on this amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Palate is light and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Toffee caramel malts, a little thin cream. Rich ripe fruits, marmalade and raisan. A little spice. Light and semi dry finish. A really flavoursome rotter that is still standing tall. Impressive!

Аромат не сильный но очень классический для стиля. Много солода, немного травы с намеками на карамель, чутка нотки бочки и сливы со специями. Цвет темно карамельный, пенки почти нет. Вкус очень питкий, даже местами немного водянистый. Но все же очень сбалансированный, на месте и горечь от хмеля с ноткой трав и карамель с намеками на мед в послевкусие а также немного специй как будто. В целом мне зашло. Такая же версия как и основной.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy amber with very small white head. Clear aroma of malt, with estery and hoppy touches. Bitter and estery flavour with malty touches. Bitter and citric aftertaste with estery notes. Not bad as such but rather tame.
