Bottle conditioned, bought at Waitrose, Wokingham Mid-brown in colour, slightly hazy despite very careful pouring (and lots of sediment); light fruity flavour with a good, long-lasting, bitter follow through. Very easy to drink!

Bottle, 5.4%. Cloudy dark amber colour. Refreshing hop aroma, citric, spicy hop aroma. Quite nice fruity flavour.

A hazy amber beer with a bubbly light brown head. The aroma is sweet and very fruity combined with a light acidity. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and fruit, and a refreshing hoppiness, leading to a bitter end. Nicely refreshing.

(Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with a small, rough, off-white head. Aroma of malt and....sherry! Medium body with sweetish, malty notes and some overripe fruit. Dry and rather hoppy finish. Quite thrilling. 220906
