Can at home in Hackney - no idea where I got it, probably Marble online. Pours clear copper with a small, fading off-white head. Sweet but restrained, with hearty malts, impressions of caramel and brown sugar, lots of ripe berries, a little peach, white cherry, subtle pine, alcohol. Full bodied, somewhat chewy, with fine carbonation. Warm to hot in the finish, some sticky toasted sugars, more caramel, ripe fruits, dates, rich bready notes. Impressive gear. Packs a lot punch. But wildly smooth overall. Superb.

Puszka 330ml (packed 11.2018). Słodowe z nutką owocową w smaku. W aromacie dużo ubożej, dość lekkie w odbiorze, przyjemne ale liczyłem na dużo więcej.

Can. Clear amber beer, small cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth light malts, a light creamy sweetness. Whisper of caramel, barely there. Good floral orange and tangerine with some peel of the same. Modest dried fruits and bitterness on the finish. Nicely fruity but lacking malt depth. Hides the abv quite well. Drinkable buy wants more complexity. Trace of esters in the aftertaste.

Can from The Beerhive. Clear amber/ruby body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of honey, raisin and cherry. Flavour of apricot and honey with a light alcohol burn on the finish. Medium body with a slick, oily texture. Soft fizz. A sweet sipper.
