Helder amber met wit/gele kraag. Aroma van veel boter/margarine, graan, toffee. Smaken zijn redelijk zoet, matig bitter, matig sterk, sterk moutig maar dan voornamelijk caramout en ambermout. Medium body, dun en vettig, lage co2. Ik ben totaal niet te spreken over het veel te boterige karakter van dit bier. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

330ml bottle. Probably amber, but in the atmosphere it’s hard to tell. Aromatic malty nose. Bitter taste, but matched with a healthy body. A good one.

Old rating. Bottle from Old Town. Pours a clear amber color with a beige head. Fruity aromas along with some biscuit malt aromas as well on the nose. Very well-balanced beer with good bready malt character, light hops and fruity esters all sharing the stage. Nice bitter dry finish.

On tap at Gwangan Taphouse. A deep amber color with a filmy beige head. Medium bodied the taste is biscuity caramel with a light hop bite. Solid & easy drinking.

Finally getting that elusive ESB rating. Poured from a 500 ml bottle. Aroma is slightly sweet and malt forward with a good amount of caramel and light toffee notes. Some light nuttiness and moderate toasted bread. Medium light fruit esters, especially raisin, plum and fig. Moderate woody hop character. Pours a clear copper red with some brown hues and a small, thick, slightly off-white head that exhibits good retention as it recedes to a thin film that lingers. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor is moderately sweet with some medium caramel and light toffee flavors. Lighter toasted bread and nuts with a hint of butter. Medium light fruit notes of raisins, plums and figs. Medium light bitterness with medium low woody, spicy hop notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an alright beer with quite a bit of malt character and balanced esters and hop notes. Definitely not my preferred hop profile or really malt profile for that matter.
