Bottle thanks to Dirty Dan, who lives up to his name with this one. It pours lightly hazy deep amber with a decent beige head. The nose is earthy, brown bread, toffee, apple pie and stewed pear. The taste is rich, oily, apple pie, pear, toasted brown bread, earth, cracker and toasty grain with a smooth finish. Medium+ body and fine carbonation. pretty decent English strong.

Bottle shared at a CBC Clerkenwell tasting - London. Thanks to Danny Boy for this rarity. Pours hazy gold with a frothy, off-white head. The nose holds crackers, toasted bread and musty hay. Medium sweet flavor with notes of toffee, bread and straight sugar. Medium bodied with fine carbonation and oily texture. Sweet finish, with more bready malts, ripe orange and toffee. OK.

Bottle. Morrisons. 99p. Poured into a Magic Rock Teku glass. You never know? Looks ok. Clear gold. Decent, lasting, white head. There’s a whiff of spicy hop. After that, it’s a bit downhill. Buttery, and metallic. Quite an achievement. Can’t knock the charity thing. Fair play for that. Don’t like the beer though.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Thanks avrashi. Clear golden with a small head. Awful aroma of buttered popcorn. Sweetish flavor with butter and corn and a bitterish finish. Diacetyl mouthfeel. Awful.
