0,5 bottle.Very nice, real English beer-like bottle and label. The current one is cleaner, nicer than the one in the picture (2023 06 27) True to its name, it is more of a light amber color, with a thick white head, which is thin, but lasts. Although it is bitter, its aroma only has a slight sweet caramel maltiness, no hops. (well, a little yes). It really has a bitter taste, i.e. resinous, herbally bitter, but also quite watery and bodyless. A classic thirst-quenching drink in the heat, but nothing more. However, at least you can enjoy a good medicinal drink from it :) Anyway, it was not a bad, classic bitter English ale.
* Nagyon szép, igazi angol sör megjelnesű üveg és címke. A mostani letisztultabb, szebb, mint itt a képen (2023 06 27) Nevéhez mérten inkább csak világos-borostyán szín, sűrű fehér habbal, ami vékony, de azért tart. Bár bitter, de illatán csak némi édeskés karamelles malátásság érződik, komlózás nem. (na jó, egy kevés igen). Valóban bitter-ízű, azaz gyantás, gyógynövényesen keserű, de emellett eléggé vizes és testetlen. Klasszikus melegben szomjoltó ital, de ennél nem több. Viszont legalább jó gyógyszereset lehet tőle büfizni :) Amúgy nem volt rossz, klasszikus keserű angol ale.

Bottle, 3.8%. Caramelly aroma, hazelnut. Clear amber colour. Big stable white head. The flavour is fairly caramelly, hint of spicy hop. Assertive bitterness.

Taste comprises aspartamic notes, orange zest, grass, straw, hint of lemon, light perfume. Medium to light bodied, light spritzy carbonation, semi drying close. Okay for an AF.

Farbe: Klares Kupfer. Ordentliche, cremige Schaumentwicklung. Malz, ein Hauch dunkle Beeren. Deutliche Hopfennote - aber dafür das „Bitter“ auf der Flasche steht gar nicht mal so bitter. Wunderbar weich, kaum Kohlensäure. Recht angenehm zu trinken. Die eher geringe Stärke von 3,8 % Alk. fällt kaum auf.

Rocky white head stayed on a clear chestnut coloured body. Malt & syrupy aroma. Medium to full bodied, smooth, soft & sickly. Malt, caramel, over stewed fruit, citrus, & pithy tastes with a long bitter finish. As a Barley Wine it's not bad.

Post-match drink, drawn in by the apparent pun. Clear golden pour with a small white head. Aromas of grain/malt, pine, some exotic fruit, similar for the tastes with a bit more citrus. Not bad at all for an alcohol-free.

Servida en pinta, color ámbar, espuma blanco hueso cremosa y persistente. Aroma a ligero malteado y algo de caramelo, en lo que a fragancia se refiere es más bien discreta. Cuerpo ligero, puntito dulce y amargo, extraordinariamente fácil de beber, trago largo. Sencillita y muy agradable, para cualquier momento.
