Amber pour. Smells of toasted caramel malt. The lightly hopped flavor is similar with toasted malt carrying through to the finish. Medium bodied.

330ml bottle. Clear copper colour, small off-white head, scattering left on top. Aroma of malts, toffee and a fruity raisin; pretty good. Taste is same, quite sweet. Creamy mouthfeel, modest carbonation. Could do with a touch more of a bitter hoppy bite in the finish to elevate it. Nonetheless its quite tasty.

330ml bottle from House of Bruer - deepest red body with a massive off-white head. Lots of toffee and caramel in there, cake fruit and malty character, more toffee in the finish.

Clear bitter. Fruity, a little bitter, it's just a decent bitter. Nothing exciting but very drinkable.
