Can. Clear gold, white head. Bright kumquat & grapefruit aroma with some mango, pine and light bread. Some honey too. Pretty much how it tastes with citrus giving way to pine needles at the fairly bitter finish. Could be a bit cleaner but tasty enough.

Less rich and creamy than I expected. Aromas of chocolate, cherry, apple and a little hazelnut. More hazelnut on tasting, but those tarter flavours are still present, and the cherry lingers longest at the finish. I'm not a cherry fan, which doesn't help, but there are some good elements.

Can. Clear amber with a smidge of beige head. Aroma of bread, prunes, earthy spices. Malty but really quite dry with strong bread and a spicy bitter finish. Good but didn't love the earthy notes.

Can. Rosy amber with a fast fading beige head. Rich caramel biscuit aroma with hints of spices. No fruit (or modern hops to hide behind). So it tastes. Has that real malty lusciousness. Clean and properly straightforward. Just a little spice and bitterness at the end. Done well.

From a 375ml can on 2/7/2023. Pours a clear deep amber with smallish head. Has a mild malt and fridge aroma. Th3e falvour is lightly malty and fruity, with some dark fruit and nuts and a moderate yet distinct maple sweetness. Has a gentle bitterness at the back. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Okay, but a bit too subdued for mine.
