Bottle: Poured a bright clear copper color ale with an average size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of semi-dry caramel malt is dominant. Taste is also dominated by some semi-dry caramel malt with some notes of oak that provided a well-rounded finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Good and well brewed but lacking a bit of character to makes this truly interesting.

Comes in a brown bottle here, from the LCBO (not clear). Pours a deep golden colour with an amber hue. The head is big, frothy, fluffy, has great retention and decent lacing. The aromas remind me of some malt liquors, but a little milder. Alcohol, malts, hops. The taste also does that. At least the mouthfeel is pretty smooth and silky, almost creamy. A little fruit and hop shows up in the aftertaste which kind of saves this brew. Overall, seems like a classier malt liquor, with a classy name (if you know Cognacs).

Bottle from Maruhn, Darmstadt
Hazy golden color; small head. The aroma has some malt, but very light. The malt flavor is ordinary, but at least balanced, and correctly bitter. Easy.

Bottle: Clear, deep golden, smaller fluffy off-white head; sweetish orangey-fruity nose with some - mainly - grassy hops underneath; soft, more light than medium bodied, light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour; exotic fruits in the drier - all in all - milder lemony-hoppy and malty finish. Good, but really not exciting.....

(bottle, # 61530) Clear, golden colour with a medium-sized and slightly grey foamy head. Fruit-accented malty aroma with notes of caramel and vanilla. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, medium bodied with a smooth carbonation. Malty and slightly biscuity and fruity taste with notes of vanilla and a brandy-like alcoholic touch towards the finish, accompanied by mildly fruity and spicy hops. Decent and warming strong Ale. 10.I.11

Purchased from some random supermarket (forgot which), consumed outside camper at Bo Peep campsite, Adderbury, Nr Banbury, Oxon, 04.09.10 Pours clear amber/orange colour with thin white head, good clarity. Some woodiness on nose and a little hoppiness, I suppose I’m getting the oak, but I still reel a little from the sweet shop aroma also coming through. Taste is a little sweet with oranges showing and a little vanilla but yep the boiled sweets show again. Its not that bad and I suppose a departure from the norm. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1
