Poured into a mug, the appearance was obviously a brown color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated at a decent pace. Sliding lace.
The aroma has some nutty malts lightly dosed by some caramel and toffee notes.
The flavor is sweet through the previously mentioned aromas. Light sweet nutty malty aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Low to medium carbonation. Gripping nuttiness on my tongue.
Overall, decent English styled brown ale that I could have again.

Deep reddish-brown color with a medium light beige head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt grain and fruit. Light-bodied with a slight roasted character and notes of stale malt, overripe fruit and a touch of hops. The finish is short and malty. Below average overall.

Bottle. Pours with a clear brown hued body with a small off-white head that fades. Aromas are pretty generic. Medium malty, nutty, brown sugar, caramel malt. On the sweet side. Low hop aromas, medium clean yeast wise. Flavors are malty, nutty, caramel, and brown sugar with some low fruity esters. Medium bubbles, a bit sweet, medium bodied.

Pour is a dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma is sour with some malt. Flavor is about the same a strange sour with a little malt aftertaste. I’m sure this was infected but even if it wasn’t this was not going to be a good beer.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) On the label credited to Shipyard Brewing Company. Pours a pretty, clear warm reddish brown with a creamy, beige head. Sweetish roasted malt aroma with some nuts. Medium body with very sweet roasted malt, nuts and fruit. Very smooth mouthfeel and a very subdued bitterness. But highly drinkable. 210908

Bottled at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm. Dark brown, airy head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and molasses. Sweet and papery, gassy and light bodied. Dominated by molasses and cardboard with notes of cocoa powder. Simplistic, sketchy malt character. Finishes lifeless with medium bitterness. If you do a subtle beer you better do it well, as there is nowhere to hide your flaws...
