A classic, strong beer with a generous warming flavour. The taste is deliciously fruity and malty with a lingering bitter aftertaste.

Bottle from Total Wine in Roseville, CA. Pours amber with a foamy/frothy beige head. Aroma is light stone fruits over mild caramel. Near med body. Flavor is a wee bit toffee to start, but bitter, and some nice fruitiness is present. Pleasingly malty, but bitter in the finish. More floral would be interesting, but itโs good as is.

Slightly hazy amber-tinted copper coloured body with a very thin tan head and a few bubbles rising from the bottom. Aroma of roasted malt, toffee, raisins, nuts, a touch of spice and some very mild hops. Medium-bodied; Acidic flavour at first with raisins & nuts most noticeable with a touch of herbal and floral hops near the end. Aftertaste shows some caramel and a light bit of malt - not much though. Overall, fairly bland and underwhelming, while some of the typical english ale flavours come out - but not in large ways. Not really worth buying, especially given the options of similar beers. I sampled this 500 mL bottle purchased from Total Wine in McLean, Virginia on 15-April-2010, sampled at home in Washington on 21-April-2010.
