Bottle from the Spar. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - toffee and biscuit. A bit of malty spice. Taste - dry breakfast cereal and more spicy malt. Palate - medium bodied with a big crunchy texture and a fairly balanced finish. Overall - decent bitter. Good body for the strength.

Can from the LCBO. Deep clear copper pour with a tiny white head. Nose is light roast and a touch of apricot. Mild fruity sweetness with an equal balance of bitterness leading to s relatively short finish. Mouth is quite thin and watery with average carbonation. Easy drinking but not much character.

500ml bottle, shared by Gaute. Deep, dark amber coloured body under a bubbly and lacing off-white head. Malt-fruity nose, mid-sweet. Caramel malts and resin-like hops in the flavour profile, as well as hints of sweet berries. Gentle bittersweet tail. Medium bodied. A well made Brit bitter (Tromsø 24.10.2013).

Bottle split at JF’s, thanks to Tony, 23/08/13. Clear golden amber with a good sized frothy light beige head. Nose is caramel malt, biscuit, toffee. The taste is a little thinner in comparison, tea bags, toffee, malty, light hop presence. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, dry finish with a little hop bitterness. Ok stuff - better than I’d remembered having not had this for a good 5 or more years.
