When the Kippen based Fallen Brewing brewery and the Cross Keys pub in Kippen agreed to a joint project to create in-house ale they knew that only one name would be fitting for the new brew. Eight different versions later after five different tasting evenings the Kippen folks finally decided on the final brew. The beer is a classic amber that was created by locals for the locals. With a caramel toffee backbone and a nice citrus bite the low ABV is one best enjoyed with friends. The full name of the beer became ‘1703 – Archie’s Amber’. The 1703 being the date The Cross Keys was established and Archie after the owners’ son.

Cask-conditioned at the Red Lion, Cricklade 27/8/2013. Amber with a slight, off-white head. Sweetish, orange and biscuity malts with some leafy hops and moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Amber, clear, thin white head
Aroma of caramel malts, creamy soft toffee malts
Taste of caramel toffee malts, cereal malts, touch of honey like on Sugar Puffs, hint of puffed candy, more malty than hoppy
Palate - thinnish body, oily texture. Fairly sweet palate. Finish as main flavour, a little dry. Tail of toasted caramel.
Overall - Quite a sweet bitter, nice malts in here (there are 5 in here). Certainly would have this again if I saw it
