500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 4.2%. Clear copper coloured beer, decent off-white head. Fruity aroma (red berries), also hints of caramel. The flavour is fruity and malty with very moderate hops / low bitterness. Slightly "dusty" finish. Not bad.

Cask at Jyske Øldage in Horsens 2006. A pale amber beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of fruit and malt, as well as light notes of caramle. The flavor is sweet malty, but with light notes of both sulphur and metal.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm Deep amber, airy head. Perfumy nose. Sweetish and light bodied, fairly soft. Dusty with soft papery malt and shampoo. Salty finish with some resiny bitterness. A straightforward, rather aromatic ale with a bit of character of it’s own.

Pour is a amber with a tan head. Aroma is caramel malts with some molasses. Flavor is a bit earthy and smoky. Some caramel malts with a nice mellow hoppyness that comes out after the swallow. A decent beer and available at most beer stores.

Medium malty aroma, with, yes, an apple component. Would I have known without reading the commercial description? Who knows. But it’s there. Dark amber color with a head that doesn’t stick. Starts medium thin with an apple peel / malt mix. Gets thinner. A rather clean taste. The malt fades, and some bitter is for the finish. But it’s not all that hoppy. I grew up with water that had hydrogen sulpide. There’s a hint of that. (refer to the C.D.) Sharp, crisp, yes. A bit watery though. Really refreshing. Retro. Celtic.

Can on the train from Cardiff to Paddington. Dark brown body topped by a creamy white head. Smell of roasted barley. Unusual taste that is hard to identify - maybe a touch of sallow, dried vegetables and fruit. Not particular flavoursome. Rather vain attempt of a bitter (03.02.2007).

Cask@Angleterre, Helsinki. Reddish amber colour with small creamy off white head. Weak flowery hops and some nuttyness in aroma. Flavour is malts, flowery hops and some caramel. Gets very spicy on the tongue in the aftertaste.
