From bottle to pint glass. Also used in the drip pan for moisturizing the turkey!! Aromas of muted caramel and slight floral hops. Slightly hazy deep amber with full tan head that lingers throughout. Taste is rich malt and strong biscuit cookie. Moderate low bitterness. Floral hops become more pronounced as it warms. Dry finish.

Dark amber, a lightly spiced sweetish aroma. Big, big malt taste with very light smoke. Thick and chewy, like an ice cream soda.

Ins Glas ergießt sich ein dunkel rötlichbraunes Bier mit schöner beigen Schaumkrone. Geruch malzig fruchtig, reifes Obst. Geschmack nach reifen Obst, malzig, trocken, fruchtig, Dörrobst.

355ml bottle from Utobeer. Pours mahogany brown with some resinous, rosy hops and a tickling citrus bitterness on the finish. Nice.

Bottle from an off licence in Ely. Poured ruby with a tight off white head. Bitter hop resin in the aroma with notes of berries and floral hints. Initial flavours of molasses, spicy hop and fruit rind. Finish was pine needles, treacle and chewy malt.
