Bottle shared at chriso’s - big thanks to Ian. Pours ear, rich gold with a creamy, white head. Big grainy, doughy malt nose, faint tangerine. Medium sweet flavor with heavy, doughy bread, light alcohol, grain, cereal. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet on the finish with further heavy, bready malts, cereal grains, minimal bitterness. Very good.

Bottle thanks to Ian. It pours golden-amber with a small, bubbly white head. The nose is sweetish, spicy, cake, candy, caramel and raisin. The taste is bitter, spicy, alcohol, brown bread, cake, sort of tartness, brown sugar, metallic notes and dirt with a dry, warming finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Decent enough actually.

330ml bottle from Auchan. Pours rusty clear amber with a big floral, orange liqueur aroma. Slick mouthfeel with a nice rosy fruity taste, slight pith with some bitterness on the finish. Alright.
