Bottle. It’s an unclear, dark golden beer topped by a small, off-white head. The aroma has yeast, diacetyl, caramel and some fruityness, with the flavor more or less the same. Some bitterness too in the flavor, especially in the swallow. Medium body, quite dry on the palate. Probably not off this one, but at least not very pleasant. 130607

500 ml bottle. Hazy orange body with a small off- white head. Aroma is caramel and diacetyl. Flavor is sweet malty, some bitterness, a bit harsh butter. Medium body and aftertaste in same style as the flavor. Probably not in its best shape this one.

Taster at the Hop Pocket Wine Company. Deep amber-bronze with a negligible head. Rather thin and fizzy. Earthy flavour with malt and a little spice. Not exactly exciting and let down by the lack of body.

Bottle 500ml @ Geokkjer
Pours slightly hazy brown with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, corn, floral and herbal. Taste is light to medium sweet and light bitter. Body is light to medium, texture is thin, carbonation is soft.

0.5l bottle. This is a cloudy deep dark orange one, almost bronze actually and it has a nice bug almost fluffy off-white top. Quite fruity and almost a bit sweet on the aroma. I get traces of both potatoes, fruits, pencil and caramel. A decent non extreme aroma. At first it feels dry on the tongue dry actually, before the sweetness lurks it's way on to the palate in the aftertaste. Average on the carbonation and thin oily on the mouthfeel. More earthy, almost soil like tones in the flavor, it's floral, something a bit dark over it and sweet malty biscuits. Really lightdrinkable and I'm noticing that I'm enjoying it more and more the further I get down the bottle. This is more my kind of bitter. A bit different from all the rest if them. 05.04.2013

Hand pulled cask at NWAF, shared half pint. Good lacing to the glassware. Copper coloured body. Dry fruity smell as well as a touch of spices. Semi-sweet malty taste supported by apricot. The aftertaste is mild with spiced bitterness. Pleasing (Manchester, 25.01.2013).

Cask at NWAF, 2013. Amber pour with a white head. Orange marmalade and peach aroma. Pear, melon and kiwi fruit flavour. Nice.

Brown 500ml bottle, best before July 2011, drank and during on of my ’random beer tasting evenings’ in April 2011. Poured into an ’Abbot Ale’ glass tankard: it was a lovely deep amber, clear and good looking, a mountanous snowy white head sat majestically on top. The head slowly sank with the beer and left some thick clingy lacing on the glass. Malts all the way with this brew, difficult to find any hop content in the smell or taste, althought it wasn’t a sweet sickly beer in any way. Almost rich in its creamy mouthfeel, it became slightly bitter towards the end of the taste, but again it didn’t seem to be a hop induced bitterness, just a drying of the mouth type.
