Cask @ Mabels Tavern. Fresh and crisp with a flowery hoppiness and a pilslike maltiness.

Medium offwhite head. Clear pale coppery body with light carbonation. Nutty caramelly floral aroma with spicy notes. Sweetish metallic nutty caramelly taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish spicy fruity caramelly aftertaste with metallic notes. Nice, drinkable, and suspiciously similar to Spitfire. (0.5l bottle, from Meny Strømmen Storsenter.)

Bottle from Gardiner & Haskins, Bristol. Deep gold with a, slight white, head. Sweet, cereal mlats, a touch of boiled sweet and soggy cardboard, grassy hop and moderately bitter finish. Not very nice.

500ml bottle kindly shared by Finn. Clear golden-brown coloured body to a low, but stable, bubbly, white head. Dotted spots to the glass. Characteristic aromas of caramel, bread, and leafy hops. Similar malt-fruity taste of leafy hops mixed with brown malts leading to a smooth and dry bittersweet ending. Foamy in the mouth. Fine bodied considering the low abv. Good drinking (at Finns in Tromsø, 25.06.2014).
