I dont feel like writing a comprehensive rating so here are my notes of the tasting: Clear copper, thin head. Slight metallic notes, some bready grains and moderate bitterness with no pronounced hops. Light body, av. carbo, goes down easy.

First things first, this is a great looking bottle. Incredible aroma! Really intense, bitter slightly burnt coffee/espresso. The flavor is more of the same, but there is a really nice subtle smokiness. Touches of soy in the finish with more of the smoke, and a good burst of bitter coffee.

Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal fruttato. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la maniera in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma che resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. In bocca l'aroma è quello di miele, biscotto, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas e mandarino.

Aroma of roasted malts, toffee, coffee, chocolate, light smoke. Flavour is light sweet with a medium bitter finish. A very solid Porter.

Aroma of malt, caramel, bread, citrus, rich dried fruits, some hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a moderate to medium biter finish. Nice full body. Not a refreshing hopbomb, this is definitely a malty English IPA.

Aroma of malt, dark chocolate, cocoa, some coffee. Flavour is medium sweet with a moderate bittersweet finish. Okay chocolate Porter, could be a bit thicker and more aromatic though.

Aroma of malt, caramel, biscuit, raisins, red fruity notes, hops. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. Pleasantly hopped Amber, as expected a bit thin but a nicely easy beer to drink.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is grassy hops with light biscuity malt, floral notes, and a soft touch of fruits. Flavour is light sweet and moderate to medium bitter. Body is light and fairly watery. Bland but chuggable with a decent bitter flavour.
