12oz can pours a clear, burnt orange with some clumpy white head. Nose is true to form. Malty and nutty. Vegetal, brown sugar or cocoa. Flavor is malty, bread crust, caramel. Yeast. Feels higher abv than it is. Off dry.

Can, courtesy of mansquito. Pours rich copper. Biscuit, very bready, lots of red fruit, lots of prune. Medium body. Fine.

Can from Franklin Beverage: pours amber with off white head. Aroma is caramel, some grass, grain. Taste is sweetish but less sweet than many US examples. Pretry good.

16 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Amber orange pour. Rocky beige head. Toasted malt aroma has some earthy, floral notes. Crisp, nutty malt flavor upfront. Hints of toast, caramel and spicy hops. Excellent balance and flavor. Well done.
