[i] [b] Bottle picked up from Hay on Wye, by the lovely Loz, gawd bless her for seeking me out another beer! Had this beer 07-02-08 [/i] [/b] Poured dark brown but with a distinctive redness, not ruby coz’ it didn’t glint in that ruby way but there was a definate redness there, nice bit beige head. Aroma is sticky burnt sugar but not as strong as it sounds, tastes of chocolate but with real fruity punch and then a nice slip down your throat sort of diluted treacleness about it, the hops then start to show towards the end and it finishe quite dry, all in all a nice and very decent beer.

[i] [b] Bottle picked up for me by Loz from Hay on Wye, had this tonight 02-02-08 [/i] [/b] Pours mid gold with white head, sweet nose some honey notes. Tasted quite simple but tasty, good juiciness but also some honey sweetnees floods through, bitterness is there but not that dominant. Like I was alluding to, this is not a complicated beer but still pretty good.

Bottle. (thanks Tony) Clear, copper body, with a beige head. The aroma is a bit roasted, with some coffee. The same goes for the flavor, but there are some fruityness in there as well. A bit to thin mouthfeel. Finishes with some coffee. A decent beer, well suited for the autumn. (070809)

Cask@GBBF2007. Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is hoppy, malty, earthy and quite vegetableish. Flavour is flowery hops and some earth + malts. Refreshing and ok, but not very exciting.
