Cask@Dog and duck, London. Hazy orangeish amber color with small slightly off-white head. Aroma is Caramel malts, some fruity and floral hoppyness as well as mild nutty notes. Flavour is quite the same. Nice sweetish bitter brew.

26th September 2008. Soft almost creamy bitter with a very mild hop profile. Not a bad beer just pretty bland.

Cask-conditioned at The Hillgrove Porter Stores, Bristol 13/9/08. Deep amber in colour with a slight, off-white head. Red fruit and sweet malt aroma. Malty flavour with some yeast and a short bitter finish. Forgettable.

Bottle, amber with nice white head, good bitterness, slight sourness, maltier than expected. I think this is a pretty reasonable beer and better than it’s ratings suggest.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm Pale amber, rich head, some sediment. Concentrated seville orange marmelade aroma. Sweet up front. Rather yeasty with light body. Evidenltly hoppy, creating a bittersweet flavour of Old English marmelade. Drier finish with striking bitterness.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, fully golden with a nice, white head. Lightly floral aroma from the hops. Light body with vague malt notes. Dry finish. Disappointing.151206
