50cl Bottle from Costa. Clear deep amber colour, off white head. Aroma of caramel, sweet malts, honey. Flavour is sweet, sticky caramel, some alcohol, first sips are much like a lighter Paulaner Salvator, but it becomes cloying rather quickly. Medium bodied at best. OK ish.

0,5L bottle. Pours red copper with light tan head. The head stays for some time. Aroma is caramel, malt, grains. Flavor is sweet and bitter, caramel, grains, malt, some iron. Finish is malty bitter and some alcohol. Overall: maybe a little bit too sweet and alcohol is not very well covered, but it’s drinkable.
