(bottle) deep amber colour with negligible white head; very low carbonation; thin, bland, simple, barely any flavour or aroma at all; nothing outright bad, but seems very watered down and unexciting

A nice small 275ml bottle conditioned ale bought at The-real-ale-in-a-bottle-bar, GBBF 09. Comes with a brass-copper coloured foil around the neck and poured a bright amber coloured body, topped by a few bubbles to a thin, patchy surface. Sweet malts to the nose added by dark fruits. Dried fruits like raisin and apricot in flavour mingled with notes of caramel malts and with some spices, too. Warming alcohol and smooth in the mouth. Somewhat short on the finish. Rather sweet. Good, if not great (Tromsø, 15.02.2010).
