Father in law stocked fridge with this nicely knowing I enjoy craft brew. Pours amber with citrus and floral nose. Tastes of grapefruit, caramel, malt, earth, and light bitter and sweetness. Decent

on tap–pours hazy amber with a tight offwhite head and heavy lacing. Aroma is soft medium malt-roasty, some spice. Taste is honey, medium malt-roasty, some spice hops. Don’t know if this is a different beer than when bottled, but something changes based on previous bottled ratings and what I was enjoying.

Dark brown and a little bit muddy. There is only a thin wisp of head. The aroma is malty with some dark fruit accents mimicking English yeast, Fuller’s wouldn’t actually surprise me at all. There are caramel notes in the malt, balanced by light plums and dark fruit. The sweetness is balanced slightly by the high alcohol and a lightly chocolatey character. Good ale when I had it years ago, and now it tastes a little old school but still good ale.
