Bottle from Ølbutikken, Copenhagen
Even if it rested for 3 months, it pours a cloudy amber-brown color, with small head; apparently viscous. Aroma of caramel, fudge, with a fruity vein; a bit nutty (that is more American than British). Strong body, round mouthfeel; caramel and toffee flavor, sweet but not syrupy; it has a medium expected bitterness, with some hop resins and some sweet oranges fruitiness.
Good but modest.

Bomber from Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours clear copper with a creamy yellow/white head. Aroma is treacle with some brown sugar. Full bodied. Flavor is treacle, brown sugar and suggestions of something like date/fig. Heat is here, but it’s not out of hand. Finishing pretty much as it started. Heavy duty reading accompaniment. Very tasty. Seems to imitate wood in the finish.
