Near black colour but with mahogany highlights. Aroma is of sweet chocolatey malts. The flavour is also sweet, the overall character rather lightish - mainly chocolate and sugar. Kind of like if you brewed a Foreign Stout specifically to serve as a dessert.

Very dark brown colour. Not much aroma, maybe a little toast. Thin, roasty body and palate. Kind of stout-like. Slight nuttiness belies that and in the end it is a by-the-numbers porter.

Pretty beer - a rich, reddish-amber colour, bright and clear. The light aroma is slightly spicy. Moderate body. Sweetish character overall with well-developed malt notes.

Light, slightly apricotty golden ale with a slightly honeyed character. Overall light and inoffensive, except to those who enjoy a golden ale with a little character. That being me.

2004 draught. Copper with some dark orange tinges, lightly hazy and little to no head. Aroma of fresh fruity hops (berries, bitter juice and some lime and mango) Interestingly unique aroma. Some tasty crystal malt starts it off, with a good dose of hops and even some alcohol notes. MMM fuggles! Well, it’s got a touch of astringency, but the crystal malt holds up pretty well. More floral and spicy notes with some soily fruity notes on the end. I really like this one a lot (though I dont like crystal malt orfuggles). It had a good medium body and moderate carbonation. Perhaps the alcohol could be toned down and there is a lot of honey sweetness in the middle.

A hazy brown color, a piney hoppy nose with a soapy, sharp piney, fruity mouth with a restrained bitter finish.
