[Bottle that my Dad shared with me - cheers!] Reddish amber with a small off-white head and a light fizz. Mellow fruity berry flavour with a moderate bitterness. Good and tasty especially for a pasteurised beer. My Dad had got a bit confused when he served this & said it was Wells Bombardier, so it may have just tasted good compared to my extremely low expectations for that beer!

(Bottle) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, apricots, treacle-toffee, toast and citrus. Malty, fruity taste with notes of dried fruit, orange peel, nuts, dark bread and a certain citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Well balanced and quite nice.

Canette 500ml. De couleur cuivrée-ambrée et claire. Nez de grains de malt sucrés, léger de houblon floral, herbeux et aux petites notes terreuses, léger de caramel toffee aux petites notes brûlées avec de faibles notes de biscuit, de fruits (agrumes) et de fumée de cigarette. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-doux ainsi qu’une texture aux notes crémeuses et aqueuses. Léger goût fruité (agrumes, traces de marmelade) et accompagné de faibles traces de fumée de cigarette et de cuir lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de biscuits au caramel, léger de toffee aux notes terreuses et avec de faibles traces de grains rôtis. En finale, une légère amertume de houblon floral et légèrement herbeux est bien présente. Post-goût moyen et un peu sec, légèrement amer de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses.

Smaczny bitter, wytrawny, ciężki i gożki. Wyczuwa się pożądne nachmielenie kilkoma odmianami tej przyprawy

Lovely nice light hazy chesnut colour with a tan head. Mild caramel and light flowery hoppy aroma. Fresh and sparkling ale. Ok carbonation. A fine bitternes and a good caramel background.
