Clear copper color, good beige head. Brown sugar caramelly malty nose with mentholy hops. Light to medium bodied. Malty, light caramel, some grassy hoppyness in the finish. A bit empty palate. Quite lame English bitter.

500 ml bottle. Dark golden body with a fast disappearing, dense white head. Aroma is mild malty. Flavor is sweet malt, some caramel and slightly bitter. Medium body and moderate in aftertaste. Rather straight forward ordinary bitter.

Bottle. A clear, pale amber beer with a small off-white head. Caramel, towards toffee, some hoppy notes. Utterly boring, both aroma and flavor. Peachy hints in the flavor, some bitterness towards the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Nothing interesting going on here. 131019

0.5l bottle. This is a deep dark bronze colored one with a medium sized really bubbly off-white top. On the nose it's get a dry woody kinda fruity aroma with a little bit of dry caramel and a general nice sweetness. Smells absolutely decent this. It's surprisingly bitter in the taste. Lots of dry bitterness and also a good amount of roastiness. Wood as well, like chewing on a coffee table in remember we had when it was younger. A floral bitterness rounds it off. It has some flavor this, but it's not necessary something in have to hunt down for a second go. 29.04.2013

500ml bottle. Clear dark amber colour with small to average, frothy, half-way kasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity hoppy aroma has notes of Williams Christ pear, preserved yellow apple, a grainy touch. Taste is minimally sweet malty, hints of fruit, cautious herbal hoppy overtones, in the finish dry, husky.

50cl bottle, BBE 23.10.13. Poured copper color with a thin, creamy white head. Aroma is light spicy, yeasty with citrus, biscuit and bready notes. Flavor has the same spicyness, biscuit and caramel, light hoppyness. Light bodied, short light bitter finish. Refreshing, easy, decent bitter.

A beautiful, reddish beer with a weak and blond head. Aroma of nuts, bread, wood, yeast, some citrusfruits and hint of roastiness. Surprisingly, quite fresh, bread and slightly roasted taste, fruits and drying wood. Medium bodied, smooth and slippery to drink. The personal and nicely complex beer.
