Bottle. Amber color with huge off-white head. Lot of caramel, malt in aroma. Taste, caramel, burned sugar, harsh bitterness. Less caramel would increase drinkability of this beer.

500ml bottle. Decent gold colour and white foamy head. A floral aroma with hops. Taste is of malt, sweet notes and then a slight floral bitterness kicks in at the end. Occasionally I pick up a fruity note. Mouthfeel is of soft carbonation and water. Very average.

Deep amber with a foamy, short-lasting off white head, aroma is not strong, some caramel or toffee sweetness with a hint of malt. Relatively high level of carbonation gives a tingly mouthfeel, there's some sweet malt character in there and a touch of fruit with some lasting bitterness in the aftertaste

Bottle from my local off licence’Wine Rack’. Pours a slightly hazy caramel brown colour with a thin off-white head. Aromas of caramel, toffee, biscuit and hints of floral. Taste is pretty much the same notes as the aroma with added notes of fruit cake, more floral and a bitter earthy hop finish. Medium bodied, slightly oily mouthfeel and a fairly long bitter hop aftertaste. Good
