Bottle that I picked up at Tesco? Aylesbury recently, consumed 29-03-09 Pours amber with a white head. Fruity with some bitterness, there are some toffee flavours swirling around, sweet maltiness and the finish is a little dry and bitter. Its ok but nothing I would particularly feel should be worthy of a revisit. A6 A3 F5 P3 OV12 2.9

(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, amber golden with an off-white head leaving laces. Nutty aroma. Medium body with a dry malt base and some nutty accents. A light fruitiness. The finish is dry and fairly bitter. Quite OK. 230107

Light amber color. Very nice hoppy aroma. Unfortunately the body is too thin, just bearing some light hop.

An amber beer with a fine though disappearing head. The aroma is of yeast, oranges, and is rather bitter. The flavor is of oranges with a very dry nice bitter end. A nice bitter in a bottle.

Caramel looking ale with a light head. An airy hopped aroma with a hopped caramel bitter flavour. Overall a good caramel flavoured bitter.
