St George's Ale is a dragon slayer of a brew. Its deliciously smooth, full flavoured and powerful hoppy aroma make it a full bodied English beer that would ward off the most ferocious of fire-breathing legends.

Sampled cask conditioned at Dansk Ølfestival.
Bronze colour. Very flowery nose. Dryish and boldly malty. Powerful. Flowery hops dominate. Medium-high bitterness. Flavourful but unrefined.

A dark amber beer with a very fine head. The aroma is very nice with notes of roasted malt and sweetness. The flavor is also very good - of a very fine maltblend carrying a mellow sweetness finish by a lovely bitterness. Really a good beer.

Strong plum aroma, also some cinnamon notes. Nice dark mahagoni color, head that befits the style. Fruity, spicy and full. Some nut flavors in the end together with a zing of hoppy bitterness.

Lightly hoppy beer with elements of chocolate in its taste. In the end it was no different to a lot of English ales.

Amber ale. Light hop aroma. Nice body, with both malt and hop in the mouth.
