A smooth well balanced traditional ruby bitter. Five different malts including crystal and amber create a rich toffee/cherry flavour. Earthy Fuggles and Goldings hops combine in a smooth English character with hints of kiwifruit and toffee.
Great with sausages or a Sunday roast. Also good with mature cheddar.

Bottle from Kris Wines. Poured a hazy dark amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is dry yeast and malt. The flavour is medium to weak bitter with a hoppy malt palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Fine for a session.

Clear dark brown - red - amber beer. Small pale cream coloured head. Palate is light, airy and slightly crisp. Smooth malt wit a little light airy cream. - semi dry. A whisper of something dark in the malt. Light citric hops, touch of piney lemon. Lactose malt in the semi dry finish. Not bad.

Duft av frukter og krydder. Fin brun farge. Lite skum, litt heng langs kant. Fruktig, eike preget smak med noe krydder.

Fra flaske på Cardinaltreff sep-13: vakker rubinfarge med fint skum. Innbydende aroma og en rund, fruktig lettdrikkelig bitterhet. En god ale både før og etter aftensang, men det skal mer til for at jeg får religiøse fornemmelser.

500 ml bottle. Pours a dark red/mahogany with light head of big bubbles. Aromas of wood, brown sugar, and a bit of sour mash. Flavours of burnt sugar, resin, and tobacco. Quite bitter.
