Courtesy & thx! to Mathieu87. 50 cl. “bomber” sampled @ Borefts 2013. BBF 29/06/2013. Nice bottle. Pours brown & oily with no head. Nose is not that strong, weak malts, weak oily caramel with some dust. Taste is weak, caramel, malty, oily nuts, light hops, faint herbs, slightly fruit. Faintly watery. Not earth shattering but this is true to the style & could be def. better on cask. These guys are doing a nice job, keep at it.

Bottle Paleo Frourio, Corfu. It pours clear ruby-brown with a thick beige head. The nose is earth, brown bread, dried fruit and some caramel. The taste is toast, brown bread, earth, leather, a touch of cocoa, cola and decent bitterness, with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not a bitter anyways... Actually rather drinkable. Not too shabby at all.

Draught at a small cafe in Kerkyra. Quite pale. Sweet and slightly fruity aroma. Almost a creamed corn taste. Sweet finish, light body. Served ice cold, so there might have been some subtleties that I missed. Basically a mainstream brew, but yet seems to have less distribution than the other products.

Dark brown. Not much head on this pour. Has a fairly toasty aroma and a toasty, nutty character. Fairly simple character. Finishes off-dry.

50cl Bottle from a small shop in the Plaka area, Athens. Clear amber colour, white head. Aroma of light caramel, toasted malts, nuts. Flavour is light floral, amber malts, nuts, typical English grainy bitter finish that I don’t fancy. Light bodied, OK.
