Pint on tap at Galbraith's. Golden bronze still beer with a thin creamy white head. Nose is caramel malt and toasted bread. There's some solid sequential lacing. Good body, smoooooooth. Taste is fruity, sweet, toffee. Finish is peppery with bitter lemon and more toffee. Amazing Bitter, one of the best I've ever had.

Copper colour and the head died. Very spicy aroma - cumin, five spice, and maybe some D. Malty palate, very spicy, caramel, some juiciness in the finish.

hazy amber color. Lots of apricots, and earthiness. Woody. Dry full bodied, hops are much more present than in the bitter. Well balanced and rounded

(Cask) Clear, dark amber with a lacing, off-white head. Lovely fruity aroma. Quite full-bodied with a soft mouth feel and a low carbonation. Lots of dry caramel notes - perhaps even a little burned. Some fruit and vitamin notes. A fairly bitter finish. A very solid ESB. 070208
