From tap at Gilroy’s Brewery in Gauteng, South Africa, 14.03.15. . Nutty brown. Aroma and taste of medium dark malt, dark syrup and roasted nuts. Good drinkability.

Red colour. There’s a lot of rich amber maltiness on the nose. Same palate, soft and with light juiciness.

Bottled. An unclear amber beer with a huge cream colored head. The aroma is acidic malty with notes of caramel and metal, leading to a dry and tart finish. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange to brown with a lacing off-white head. Mild orange fruit and malt aroma. Flavour is mild citric with an almost gone malt flavour. Citric and mild infection flavour into the finish. Sadly another bottled version that was off :(

(Bottle 34 cl) Clear, orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Lightly nutty and vaguely burned aroma. Light in body and a little low in carbonation. Very pleasant nutty accents, soft mouthfeel and a smooth finish almost without any bitterness. 040508

Bottled. Ruby colour, brief head. Citric nose. Sweetish and roasty. Solid raisniny crystal malt character, rounded mouthfeel. Grassy hops adds pleasant bitternesss. A very aromatic beer that fills your mouth with flavour, remarkably similar to how I remember Usher’s Ruby Ale used to be.
