Bottle that I picked up from Morrisons, Aylesbury, Bucks, consumed 22-07-09 Pours a rich ruby colour with a beige head. Sticky malty and toffee on nose. The taste is toffee and sticky dark fruits with dates and prunes dominating, there is warmth from the alcohol and a gentle but nonethelesss steady bitterness. I haven’t checked my Suffolk Strong rating but I would hazard a guess that there are some strong similarities between these two beers. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov14 3.5

Location: 14.9 oz bottle from Gilly's, 7/20/09
Aroma: Nice, relatively subdued, nose consisting of honey, grass, bready, citrus
Appearance: Creamy orange-amber color, super creamy white head, flowing cream pour, and tons of lacing
Flavor: Heavily malted, light hop backing, strong bread flavor, touch of sweetness
Palate: Heavily creamy, nice mouthfeel, no carbonation
Overall Impression: I liked this, if you are a fan of the cream ale style, I think this one works pretty well. It's not super flavorful or strong, but it is a nice drink.

Thin brown head. Red-brown body. Vinuous plummy caramel aroma with wooden alcoholic notes. Dry-swetish-acidic caramelly papery wooden taste. Tart. Thin body. Sharp mouthfeel. Dry-acidic cherry wooden aftertaste. Nice, if perhaps a bit too old (2000 vintage). (0.5l bottle bought so long ago I no longer know where.)
