Cask at GBBF08. Good fruity aroma. Clear amber colour. The flavour is nicely malty with a hint of caraway seed. OK malty finish, not so bitter.

500ml bottle. Gold with a thick cream head; caramel and malt aromas; similar flavours, but over-pasteurised giving an unappealling jammy, stewed fruit effect; slightly bitter finish, but mainly leaving a burnt caramel after-taste. Not pleasant.

Pour is a orange with a whtie head. Aroma is of sweet malts and a little mustyness. Flavor is some dark malts and a bit of caramel. I really could not tell the difference between this beer and the bitter i had from this brewer about 15 minutes ago. Both were watery and boring.

Bottle @ thewolf-and-his-flock-of-sheep tasting session. Clear orange color. Aroma reminds me of an old ale, caramelly and malty. Malty taste. Quite boring though.

As Hurns Old Style Bitter. A hazy dark orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet with a grassy hop note as well as notes of fruit, and light notes of diacethyl. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel as well as some fruit, leading to a dry bitter end, that also has hints of metal.
