A delicious, refreshing red ale. It brings together a range of 6 specialty malts and New World hops. This creates a characterful ale with a toffee, caramel and dark fruit palate, finishing with soft piney, resinous hop notes.

Cask, half at Euston Tap. Fragile bubbly head over an unclear, apricot coloured body. Semi-sweet malts with fruity hops to the nose, impression of marmalade. Dried fruity flavour mixed with a touch of chocolate. Rather heavy bitter finish. Full to medium bodied. Likable without being outstanding (London, 10.04.2013).

Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm
Dark amber color, hazy, with creamy head, some big bubbles. British yeast aroma, lightly feety and spicy, and some hops. The flavor is more appreciated, there is caramel, a light earthy/soil touch, and a quite strong yeast character; strong bitterness, the hops provide mainly some resins; there is a trace of liquorice in the end; the final is very strong.
It’s a dirty Ale, with a good English character, but quite rough.

Cloudy red brown beer with a decent cream tan coloured head. Smooth semi dry palate. Good caramel malts. Good piney hops. Nicely joined up by mild red berry fruits. Semi dry finish with a mellow bitter linger. Smooth and tasty.

500ml bottle - Hazy red orange body with a creamy thick off white head. Very spicy in the nose, woody, with a strong citrus-cum-malt aroma. Pretty spicy, herbal, citrusy, tropical taste. Long bitter aftertaste, and a well rounded slick mouthfeel. Very interesting brew, I really enjoyed this.

500ml bottle @ Gallows Bird, Espoo

Pours dark orange with a bubbly head. Aroma of caramely malts, toffee, hints of fruity hops and grass. Taste has notes of grassy hops, caramely malts, toffee and hints of ripe fruits. Finish is malty and bitter with hint of grassy fruits. Okay, quite malty amber ale.
