500 ml bottle. Golden body with a small off-white head. Aroma has malt, some caramel and a define hop aroma, a hint of roasted malt as well. Flavor is a bit disappointing considering the rather promising aroma. Malt, a hint of caramel and almost no bitterness. Rather watery body and an short finish. Not to bad, just ordinary and a bit boring.

500ml bottle from Centra, Majorstuen in Oslo. Hazy amber body topped by a filmy layer. Light hoppy-malty aroma. Smooth hoppy notes in flavour followed by cautious hints of dark fruits. Dry ending. Watery and almost missing bitterness (shared with Finn, Tromsø 06.09.2007).

Bottle. (Branded Drinks) Pours with a golden body, quite clear, and topped by a small off-white head. Quite malty nose, with a little dusty note, and some caramel and fruit. Would like a bit more pronounced aroma though. The flavor starts quite fruity, with a touch of caramel and a vague note of butterscotch. Medium mouthfeel. Fruity finish with caramel. The beer is nothing special, easy to drink, but a bit boring. Rating: 5-3-5-3-11-2.7. (070906)
Bottle. A next-to clear, golden, sparkling beer with a cute, finger-thick, off-white head. Weak nose with malts and some caramel. Fruity hops too. Mostly hoppy and fruity flavor with the malts in the background. Some bitterness towards the finish. Medium body, quite carbonated, smooth and easy to drink. Pleasant, but dead boring. (081108)

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger, as "Branded Drinks Old Gee Spot". ABV is 4.0%. BB date Dec 08. Clear amber colour, large head. Fairly strong and sweetish / sugary fruity aroma, also notes of malts, treacle and bakery. Moderate malty flavour, mellow and easy drinking, low bitterness.

(Bottle 50 cl) Lightly hazy amber with a small, off-white head. Somewhat unclean malty nose. Slightly watery body with vague accents of nuts and a lightly bitter finish. Easily forgotten - and another bottle conditioned British beer gone amiss. 130806

A dark amber beer with a small disappearing white head. The aroma is fruity sweet with notes of caramel and honey. The flavor is fruity with notes of oranges and hops and an OK bitter and dry end.
