Single bottle from Lemon Tree. Pours a light amber color with a bubbly head that settles into suds. Slightly woody smell, light malt nose.Taste has malts and noticeable alcohol. Hops are pretty bitter, yet medicinal. The bottle has a DOB of 4/29/13, so it could be hops, or it could be going phenolic. I still like it, though. Drinking it down just builds up the hops. Like a slap in the face.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is pretty plain, with light fruitiness and grain. Pours clear copper with a one finger off-white head that falls after a minute. Taste starts out sweet before turning bitter. Grainy and licorice flavors with a metallic tinge. Pretty boring. Not what I was expecting.

Bottle from The Bottle Shop Canterbury. Clear amber colour with lasting cream head. A little nutty on the aroma. Some toffee, some nuts, a little perfumed hop flavour. It’s fine. Good mouthfeel. Ok toffee and oak nuts.

Bottle from Malt & Vine. Pours rather amber gold or dark gold or ? Anyway there was a transient, slight white head. Aroma was caramel with some earthy hop. Very nice aroma. Med + body. Flavor is mild caramel with some earthy hop. Yet it comes out much tastier than that sounds. It’s smooth and rich. Gets fairly woody in the finish. Which is dry, and decently bitter. Very tasty. In a dry and woody way. :)
