Bottled@Poirottiβs Skotoberfest). Reddish orange colour, with small beigeish head. Aroma is quite normal for a bitter, some wood, grassy hops along with some mild notes of caramel. Flavour is quite malty and bready at first but then turns into a very dry grassy bitterness in the finish. Quite pleasant, but not very special.

500ml bottle from Booths. Chestnut with thick beige head. Lovely subtle grapefruit hop profile on this. Some candy sugar in mouth. Hop as I say is very decent. One of the better Broughton beers. Little bit of smooth creaminess.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful dark amber with a small, fine almost Guinness-like head. Very high pressure in this bottle making the beer flood. Presumably unfiltered. Very marked hop bitterness atop a malty base. Perhaps a bit too bitter for me. 251003
