Bottle from Morrisons' Xmas section rather than their beer section. Clear copper with small off-white head. Typical pasteurised ESB aroma with sweet malts, sultanas and light spices but with suggestions that it has been boiled to death and kept in a slowly rusting tin for 50 years. Taste is more interesting with caramel malt, light chocolate, sultanas, cinnamon and a leafy bitterness. Slightly cloying but has a decent body and a bittersweet tang, drying. Its ok, very drinkable.

Batemans Rosey Nosey, Flasche von Töpper, Moabit. - Dunkles Rubinrot, klar; landestypisch dürftige Beschäumung. - In der Nase herbsüße dunkle Frucht mit leiser Sirupnote, warmes Toastmalz und nur milde, ansatzweise englische Hopfengrundierung. - Antrunk arg schlank und gerstig hart toastmalzig mit dunkler Brotkruste, feiner Orangenschalenbittere und ätherisch-herbaler Herbe. Geringe Süße. Kaum obergärige Züge. Gut rezent (für meinen Geschmack zu sehr), schlank an der Grenze zum Dünnen, hart im Mund. Im Abgang solide englisch herbale, etwas erdige Hopfenbittere. - Brauchbares englisches Ale, aber zu hart und ein wenig schmalspurig - und mit ganzen 4,7 % auch kein richtiges Festbier. (10.12.2024.)
