500 ml bottle. Orange colour with a white head. Fruity and hoppy aroma. Flavours are well-balanced bitterness with some caramel malty sweetness and a little hint of toast. Lovely dry finish.

Bottled. Amber coloured, big beige foamy head. Aroma is fruitish hoppy. Typical bitter, strong hopped flavour with some hints off fruits. Hoppy finish with some weak hints of fruits in aftertaste. A bit paperish in the finish too. Nothing that special...

A brown beer with a disappearing beige head. The aroma is very hoppy (goldings) combined with notes of caramel. The flavor is dry with notes of roasted malt, caramel, and hops.

Amber color. A strange aroma of candies and some malt. Strong caramel taste, some sweetness, some malt, again the candies, high ending bitterness.

Bottled, Labelled Usher’s Founder’s English Ale (4.7%). Copper colour, dense, firm head. Fuggley hay aroma. Dry, but thin and almost sharp. A hint of metal and stale hops. This is not what it used to taste like.
