Ruby in colour; robust and refreshing in taste, Fireside is a fantastic winter warmer. Citrus hops leave a mellow, fruity linger on the palate balanced with malty overtones. Savour Fireside alone or enjoy with friends, the perfect winter ale.

Bottle picked up at local Sainsburys. Ruby red in colour as it states, with a tasty slightly nutty and malty flavour. The aroma gives off sweetish notes along with the malt there is some hops detected in both nose and taste.

Bottle: pours a chestnut-red colour with a beige head; rich fruity aroma; medium jammy body with fruit and malt, and just the right amount of bitterness; citrus hops give a clean aftertaste, but it still feels quite sticky in the mouth.

An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel, while the flavor is sweet with primary notes of straw, combined with slight hints of acidity, leading to a hoppy end.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful clear amber with a small, off-white head. Soft, nutty aroma. Incredibly smooth, soft body with typical fruity notes from the ale yeast. Flavour of nuts and caramel. A very pleasant and quaffable session ale. 291005

500ml bottle from Sainsbury. Pale chestnut colour with thin beige head. Odd malt/hop nose. Slghtly soapy and yeasty . Mouthfeel is a bit thin with sherberty hop on end. Some tangy hop with a touch of ginger. Just not very exciting
