Bottle from Beers or Europe. Pours a dark reddish brown with small off-white head. Aroma of sweet rich malts, toffee, raisins, pear. Taste is the same, sweet and rich with some nice fruitiness. Slightly tinny which might come from being heavily filtered. Smooth medium body, slightly syrupy around the palate. Its better than I was expecting. Good bitter in the end.

500ml bottle from Morrisons online. Light amber, small big bubbled white head which last barely seconds. Typical aroma of citra hops with its slightly herby note, used in a few Marston cheap brews. Biscuit malts and herbs in the flavour with a slight touch of citrus. Good crisp dry bitterness and hop resin finish which elevates it along with a nice zing on the carbonation. Mixed.

Fra cask på Mossy Well, sammen med Steven: klar gylden med ok skum som varer. Lett syrlig fruktighet, delikat krydret og med slank lettdrikkelighet.

Cask @ Ringwood Brewery. Pours a generally clear blonde, white head. Sweet malt aroma. Smooth buttery flavour profile, pale malt, bready. Decent fresh at the source.
