330ml bottle from K-Citymarket Sello, Espoo. BBE 22/12/17. Pours clear dark orange with a white head. Aroma of malts, herbal notes, hints of hops and caramel. Taste is smooth, slightly watery and sweetish with some maltiness, caramel, hints of hops and herbal notes. Finish is grainy, malty and caramely with some sweetness, hints of fruits and herbal notes. Decent, quite easy going.

330ml bottle from Golden Vineyard off-license, Greenwich. Golden colour with a white foam head leaving lacing and aroma of tropical fruit lychee. Taste is malt, caramel, alittle biscuit with some light hints of tropical fruit & citrus hops and earthy bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel, light bodied, soft carbonation, dry light bitter finish. Quite OK.

Poured into a taster showing no head and translucent caramel brown with moderate filtration. The nose shows a strong biscuit malt sweetness. The palate is light bodied and well carbonated. Flavors of extremely subtle malts and sparse notes of bittering hops at the end. Very watery in general and a bit too light for anything.

From a 330ml bottle on 10/10/2015. Pours a clear dark golden with a small head. The nose features some fruity hops with some metalic notes. Flavour wise, there’s carmel malt, some citrus fruit, and a pretty firm spicy bitterness, again with a slight metallic taste. The texture is thin and the carbonation average. A bit too disjointed to really impress, but still packed with flavour for a little beer.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Tom L. Clear deep golden. Aroma of slightly stale hops, kinda cat-pissy and leafy, with light fruitiness. Flavor has some sweetish malt, and slightly stale leafy and citric hops, with a bitter finish. Rather light-bodied.

Bottle. Amber with a white head. Aroma of kumquats, grapefruit, nectarines, pine. Very light bodied. A very little caramel, lots of grapefruit, some pine and pepper. Bitterness is just a bit on the harsh side given the lack of support. OK as a dustcutter but I couldn’t really imagine drinking more than one.
