Can on the Eurostar to Brussels, from an IP trade with Stevoj, 07/12/18. Lightly hazed amber with a reddish glint topped with a beige covering that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is caramel malts, fruit cake, brown sugar, dried fruits, light booze. Taste comprises biscuit, candied orange peel, bitter sweet fruits, sugars, fruit loaf. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with dusty hop bitterness. Passable number but lacking depth for the ABV.

Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Pretty routine fruit beer gash.

12oz can from Moscow Co-op. Dark Amber pour with an initial fluffy head, which Fades down to a skin. Both the aroma and taste favor the malty Style of the American Amber, but with a bit more heft. This version is only at 7% ABV, not quite the 8% that was listed on the main beer. Still a bit stronger than your average Amber. Mouthfeel is nice, it's got a very good weight to it. Mostly malty with mild sweetness. Hops have a little bit of say at the Finish.
