This beer is all about the toffee and caramel flavors emphasized by imported British Pale Malt. Malt-forward but amazingly dry with a balanced addition of British Hops.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a hazy dark amber reddish brown with a medium beige head. Aroma has plenty of English bready malt, low hop content, and soft floral notes. Flavour is nicely malt-forward, yet dry and well-attenuated, with butterscotch, toffee, bready notes, and just enough hoppy bitterness to back. Reasonably constructed but just not particularly interesting.

5oz pour at The Magnet. Pours murky brown with a foamy beige head. Grassy malts with some very subtle brown bread malts on the nose. Flavour has bread crust malts and dry grass, bitter on the finish. A bit haphazard; okay.

Dull pale brown, slight haze. Sort of a caramel aroma. Sweet caramel up front, a bit of toasty, crackery stuff in the finish. Way too sweet, really. British doesn't equal underattenuated. So kind of going in the right direction but I wouldn't say getting there.

On tap. Pours a copper color with moderate head. Aromas of grain and herbal hops. Flavors of grain, biscuity malts and noble hops. Ok for what it is.

Growler poured at the brewery and brought back via Helijet to the mainland and sampled in Surrey. Yes, this is what Beer tasting is - a jet-setting lifestyle only available to the rich and famous!! Or, maybe not... This pours with significant carbonation, small bubbles in a medium brown body and very modest white foam on top. Lots of malt character on the nose, some orange peel, but little else. Flavour is a malt forward affair with chunky brown bread and just a hint of hops to sharpen it out. Maltiness is a big surprise out here on the west coast so I'm surprised and impressed. I will, indeed, drink all sixteen ounces this evening. I already had the pizza over at the brewery......
