Bottle at home, 29/12/15. Clear amber with a well appointed off white covering that retains well. Nose is caramel, light tobacco, biscuit malt, orange marmalade, straw. Taste comprises airy malts, orange zest, biscuit, caramel, toasted bread, mellow hop notes. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with light hop bitterness. Pleasant enough easy drinking amber.

Bright clear amber beer, decent pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and minerally crisp. Very thin malts bring thin cream and unsweet caramel. Mild dried fruits and modest bitterness. Light finish. Any pacific hops are lost on me.

Clear nutty color with an off white head. Some lacing down the sides of the glass. Dried fruits and hoppy aroma. Quite inviting. Medium + body and a fine carbonation. A bit sweet and an ok bitterness. Dried fruits, toffee malty. Decent brew but not my style.
