A sweet malty beer with lots of toffee & caramel notes from the pale and crystal malts. Fresh dry hop taste comes from the challenger and goldings which also give a satisfying easy drinking bitter finish.

Canette 440ml. De couleur ambrée et claire. Nez de grains de malt aux notes sucrés, avec des notes de houblon floral et herbeux ainsi que quelques traces de caramel très doux. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement doux ainsi qu’une texture légèrement crémeuse azotée. Faibles notes de biscuits avec des petites traces métalliques (azote) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un léger goût de malt sucré aux faibles traces rôties avec des notes de caramel très doux et de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses avec de faibles traces de noix. Post-goût court, aux notes amères de houblon floral.

brownish-golden colour, not too much, though long lasting creamy white head; not too intensive aroma of bread any maybe some caramel; light taste of roasted sugar, malt and some hop, light carbonation; a bit watery beer, but quite drinkable

średnie piwo, fajny efekt tornada i ta biała kremowa piana, która utrzymuje się do końca picia trunku. Ale zbyt małe wysycenie, nawet jak na tego rodzaju bittera creamflow. Nie jest wogóle wyraziste i wyraźne w smaku. Lepsze zdażało mi się degustować.

A copper amber ale with a thick lacing frothy nitro (widget) mocha head. In aroma, light caramel, berries, and light metallic notes. In mouth, a nutty malt with faint grassy hops, a tad cloying. Can from LCBO.

Draught, 3.5% at BBF12. Clear copper colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is dry at first, a little rough. Good flowery aroma hop note.

A deceptively good looking drink, a good head on a clear ruby body, but then let down by a metallic bitter first sip which carried on throughout a very watery pint.

Surprised to see this in a bar down at Bewdley while on a pub crawl Oct 2011. Took a half pint purely to review: Good amber body with a large, deep white head. The aromas given off were few, the beer being dispensed so cold, when it warmed some dark, malty fruity smells appeared. The taste was also on the malty side, pleasant without setting the world alight. I little on the fizzy side, like most keg bitters, but I still enjoyed this: the only non-cask ale I had during the crawl.
