Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has strong notes of fruit as well as medium notes of alcohol, and malt. The flavor is very malty with strong notes of alcohol, spices, and bread, leading to a dry alcoholic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. This is an excellent english brew. Poured a cloudy amber colour with a dissipating thin white head. Very interesting aroma. Loads happening. Perfumed hop, coconut, tropical fruit, yeast, spices. Flavour had similar elements and a boozy kick leading to a lingering dryish finish. Definitely one to add to the roster.
