Old Peculier is a beautiful, yet very simple beer, brewed using a very generous blend of finest pale, crystal and roasted barley with two bitter hops combined with the majestic and noble ‘Fuggle’ hop to produce a beer of awesome full-bodied flavour with subtle cherry and rich fruit overtones.

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thanks for the opportunity! Deep brown color with small tan head. Aromas is toffee, dark bread, raisins. Flavor is the aroma and mildly sweet. Medium bodied with a slightly oily mouthfeel. I am sure this was much more impressive 20 years ago. Now it is just good.

chestnut brown / amber with a smooth beige head.
mild malty aroma with a peculiar almost berry fruity hoppy note, reminds me of the aroma i've found in beers claiming to be "old ale" style. quite fruity. Nice enough though.
Flavor is bitter hoppy, fruity bitter hoppy, malty, roasted malty. palate is thick, a bit like a mix between ESB , stout and something wih berryish fruity notes.

Аромат приятный, немного винный, изюма, легкие горькие и пряные нотки от хмеля, чуть жженый солод. Цвет темно коричневый, прозрачный, пенка неплохая по началу. Вкус уже хуже, Больше ощущается солода, но а целом вкуса мало, очень много горького хмеля после глотка, при это сильная кислинка скорее кофейная. Какие то оттенки дуба. Но в целом разочарование.

Leather, some roast. Brown pour with Micha head. Dark chocolate. Pretty pleasant all around, I'm surprised I've never had this one. Light bitter end. A touch of bark. Can.
