An auburn red ale with subtle malt undertones and a pleasing aroma of vine fruits. This rich ale is brewed with Rye Crystal malt providing it with a distinctive spiced and peppery aroma, with pleasant woody flavours.

Bottled(500ml). -Pours nice ruby colour with medium size pale beige head and malty nose. The aroma is also very malty and hoppy with notes of herbs and spices. Strong bitter finish. Too much bitterness for my taste.

(Bottle, Jerusalem Tavern, Farringdon, London, 6 Aug 2007) Ruby red colour with frothy off-white head. Malty nose with wild berries and lovely spicy notes of the Styrian Goldings hops. Malty taste with slightly roasted notes of crystal malt, wild berries, black-currant, bittersweet notes of cranberries and spicy hops in the finish. Very tasty, almost leaning in the American amber ale direction. One of the best St Peters I’ve tried.

500ml bottle from the brewery. More russet than ruby, with lasting beige head. Hoppy aroma. Wow the Styrian Goldings are really pronounced. Some red berry fruit comes through on the nose. Some choc/coffee in the mouth, carbonation is slightly harsh. It settles down to a warming British beer with excellent levels of hop around it. Fresh. One of my favourite St Peters beers. Top banana. Get’s a 4/5 as I would actively seek this out.

Bottled. Clear, golden bitter with a small beige head. Malty-sweet start, then some faint notes of hops and fruits reach your nose. The flavor is quite sweet, with some hops in the background and finish. A medium-bodied and a bit one-dimentional ale. Rating: 6-3-6-3-12-3. (070302)
Bottle, courtesy of tarjei. It pours a clear, quite dark golden body, topped by a small, off-white head. Weak aroma where caramel and maltyness dominates, and has company of some fruity and citrusy hops. The flavor is citrusy and fruity up front, followed by malt and caramel, and ends with a nice citrusy bitterness. Medium body. Nice and refreshing, but way too similar to the other St. Peters bitters. (081108)
