Bottle. Hazy amber/brown body with a thick beige head. Steady carbonation. Fluffy lacing marks. Aroma of wood, earth and honey. Flavour of weak tea, tangy orange and herbal hints. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. Delicate and easy drinking.

Half-pint, cask ale shared with Finn at Piccadilly Tap. Patchy layer blanketing the glass. Next to clear, red-brown body colour. Brown malts and leaves on the nose. Mixed taste of leafy hops, grain and caramel. Coffee roastiness to the ending. Medium bodied. Well done (Manchester 15.02.2016).

Tap@Hanging Bat, Edinburgh - dark brown pour with beige head. Aroma and taste is roasted and toasty malty, some caramel and toffee sweetness in the background, a sprinkling of nutty notes, some dark fruity nuances as well, lovely stuff. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

330ml bottle @ Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. Pours clear brown with medium off-white head. Aroma is caramel and a mild bubblegum sweetness. Taste is toast, nutty malt and dried fruit hop with a touch of pine. Good, complex brown ale.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear, light brown with a frothy off-white head. Pleasant toasted biscuit aroma, with hints of caramel, orange, brown bread. Medium sweet flavor with more biscuits, simple bread, faint cocoa, moderate juicy citrus hops, orange, light tangerine. Light bodied with average carbonation. Nicely balanced in the finish, with further toasty biscuits, citrus hops, very faint licorice, some toasted pine, mild grass, earth, touches of rindy orange, more tangerine, dry caramel. Really well balanced overall, nice depth of character (especially considering the relatively low ABV). I could bury a few pints of this sauce. Very nice.

Dark brown and clear. Strong aroma and flavour of green, piney hops. Flavour has some sweet malt notes bringing some balance.

Cask @ Piccadilly Tap, Manchester. Deep golden-amber with a creamy head. It’s full of tropical fruitiness in both aroma and taste, and fairly crisp tasting too.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; clear light copper/brown pour with a frothy beige head, aroma has pine nuts and some red fruits, taste is bursting with fresh pine, a hint of toffee, red fruits, a nutty finish. I’m starting to like these hopped up browns.
