Bottled. An unclear orange-brown beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of over-ripe fruits, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of both spices and over ripe fruits.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of highlandlad. Comes as "Holgate Old Pale Ale". Hazy, amber golden with an off-white head. Unclean, caramellish nose. Medium body, unclean malty and somewhat caramellish notes. Rather hoppy finish, Very lively - a gusher. 180907

33 cL bottle (labelled as Old Pale Ale). Pours hazy orange with a lacing white head. Slight mouldy and spiced nose. Minor acidity with a strange spiced flavour. Malty and slight sugarish without any dominant sweetness. Strange spiced and ashtray like flavour - not my style in any way.

Cloudy light amber color. In the beginning I thought I was going to drink a normal Ale, with some caramel aroma and flavor, but after a few seconds something disappointing is hitting my sense: the mouthfeel becomes suddenly dry and metallic, with an unpleasant dry touch of roasted barley, and the final is spoiled too. Maybe a wrong bottle.

Bottle at Chris_O bottlefest 2007. Hazy gold with thick white head. Bit sticky toffee. It’s pretty bad though.

Bottled. Dark orange and very hazy with rich, airy head. Flowery, spicy melon aroma. Sweet, and fruity with pleasant lasting mango finish.
