A full flavored Pale Ale, having a predominantly fruity palate with malt overtones, a subtle hop character gives this Pale Ale a delicate overall palate, making a very drinkable beer.

Bottle: Clear, copper coloured, bigger, very stable off-white head; moderate to solid sweetish spicy-fruity nose (dried fruits with a touch of cinnamon); dryish moderate bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied, quite soft; lemony-orangey aromas in the bitter-sweet dark-malty finish. A goody.....

Bottle. Clear gold brown with loose off-white head. Little aroma - vegetable / pepper. Medium body and carbonation. Rather sweet but with balancing flavours - fruity tanginess to start and some slight bitterness to finish. Burnt / dark malt especially in finish. Hints of esters and spice. Nice full-flavoured beer.

500ml bottle. Pours a deep opper with a medium, frothy head. Aroma is faint, fruity and malty. Taste is rich fruits. Strong bitter finish. Bit thin for 6%. Not bad, but I’ve had better.

Beautiful red-brown colour and weak, white head. Aroma is toffeeish and sweet, red berries, redcurrant and syrup. Flavour is overally sweet, malts, wood, some roastiness and some drying bitterness in the end. Nice to dring with medium palate. Balanced, sweet beer; but also too simple; more hops and bitterness would be balanced this beer. The beer without anything special to remember.

bottle, bought somewhere in South Wales. Clear amber colour, large of-white head with nice lacework. Malty-fruity nose. Full-bodied, lots of caramel, malt and roasetd malt, combined with citrusy hop flavours, resulting in a bitter-sweet character. Smoorht carbonation, velvety palate. A pleasure! An extremely delicious beer!
