A light coloured, moreish ale brewed with the finest Maris Otter Hops and Crystal Malts. A hint of torrified wheat is added producing a satisfying and complex flavour. A fresh dry aftertaste is supported by a fairly hoppy character.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of alcohol and light notes of honey. The flavor is slightly acidic malty with primary notes of caramel, but also lighter notes of fruit and alcohol.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours a slightly hazy amber golden with a rough, off-white head. Oxidized aroma of sherry and overripe fruit. Medium body, the mouthfeel is soft and carbonation very low. Caramel and overripe fruit. Almost no bitterness. Nice. 160408

500 ml bottle, bought in Edinburgh. ABV is 5.0%. Orange to amber colour, decent off-white head. Sweetish malty aroma with notes of marmelade, hints of oak and fortified wine. The flavour is also sweetish and fruity, hints of oak, moderate hops in the finish. Not bad, but a bit too much on the sweet side.

Bottle from Peckhams, Glasgow. Copper, disappearing beige head. Oddish mix of dried fruit and dry malt, some dusty hop. Fine in mouth, bit of candy sugar and cut glass. Lots of dry malt. OK, but Iām not keen.
