Cask at The George Inn, Southwark. Not much aroma. Nice amber color with ferocious white head. Starts a bit fruity, seems peachy. A little malt follows, and the finish is rather dry and nicely bitter.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful clear, dark amber colour with a very small, off-white head. Lightly caramelish nose. Rather light-bodied with notes of roasted malt and caramel without any real sweetness. Lacks some character - appears like a cheapish version of Newcastle BA. 310805

An orange beer with a small disappearing off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty, but also with notes of caramel, hops, and brunkager ("browncakes"). The flavor is hoppy and spicy - I pick up cinnamon - but I also pick up an off-note I can’t put words to, before a dry end sets in.

Dark honey brown color, small off-white head. Flowery hoppy nose with hints of honey. Light bodied. Some English hops, trefoil and honey sweetness. Mild real ale, ok brew but watery.

[Cask at Cockney Pub, Århus] A brown beer with a small head. The aroma is slight of malt. The flavor is smooth, sweet malty with notes of caramel and wood before a dry finish takes over.
