From a 330ml bottle on 24/7/2013. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with a smallish head. Has a slight, sweet malty fruity aroma. The flavour features quite a bit of sweet citrus fruit (especially orange, and a touch of honey. Finishes with a medium bitterness. The body is medium to full and the carbonation average. Actually quite nice, and a little harshly treated on here imo.

There’s plenty of malt on the nose hiding some subtle floral notes. In the mouth, it’s also malty with some late hops. It’s a reasonably good length with a viscous soap mouthfeel that takes some swallowing, but what really stands out to me is the alcohol: this one really leaves the alcohol to climb all over you, which lets it down a little. Other than that, it’s a nice amber ale.

Pours dark amber with a large, fading head.Nose shows nutty and toasty malt along with soft chocolate. Also some faint spicy hops.Similar flavours with the addition of caramel and some grainy malt. Finishes with metallic and doughy notes.Could use more carbonation.

Light amber with a small but dense cream head. High bead. Aroma has honey, butterscotch, grass and a touch of chocolate. Taste is very mild, with gentle sweetness and bitterness that is just implied by the slightly less sweet finish. There’s nothing in particular I disliked about it, it’s just a very dull beer.

Bottle. Pours golden brown with no head. Slightly malty aroma. Medium body and quite fizzy. Taste is mat and toffe with something slightly tangy There is essentially no bitterness except perhaps a hint in the finish but this is more burnt toffee than hops bitterness. Overall rather cloying.

Bottled. Deep golden. Fruity, papery malt aroma. Sweet with clean, rounded mouthfeel, medium body and odd notes of pineapple. Low bitterness. Not sure what they wanted to achieve.
