50cl bottle from Morrisons. Deep gold with a white head; leafy hop aroma; strong dry and grassy hop flavour, with more dry hops on the finish. If you like hoppy beers, this is a must.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Clear nut brown, rich head. Papery aroma. Sweet and lightly roasty with light-medium body and somewhat mellow mouthfeel. Nutty with restrained piney hops, lightly syrupy. Short finish with a faint whiff of resiny bitterness.

Bottle: Clear, amber colored, small, quite stable off-white head; fruity-malty nose with a big touch of herbal hops; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; delicate sweetish-malty finish with a hoppy touch in the aftertaste. Not a real bomber...........

An amber beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty and slightly spicy and caramelic, while the flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel on a thin body.
