500ml bottle. Amber, thin off white head. Yeast, hop and nice strawberry fruits aroma. Almost unbelievably drinkable bitter. Good juicy strawberry malt in mouth. Understated hop finish. Finish lacks something. But overall easy drinking bitter.

500ml bottle from Hog’s Back Beer Shop. Clear reddish copper with thin off white head. Yeasty toffeeish hop aroma. Bit light on the flavours in the mouth, would expect it to be a bit better to be honest. Bit too carbonated and a little tinny yet it is bottle conditioned. Caramel toffee flavour runs through it butter overall the lasting sensation is this over carbonation. Lacks the usual hoppiness from this brewery.

Bottled. (As Wobble in a Bottle) Brownish orange and hazy, with a beige head. Looks really deliciuos. Hops, a light maltiness, and some caramel in the aroma. Quite volatile. The flavor has a good dash of alcohol, with caramel sweetness and some hoppiness. Fullbodied beer, and a finish with alcohol and hops. (060604)

Bottled. A copper-colored beer with a small beige head and lots of floaties. It has an aroma starting off with alcohol and dried fruits, with sweetness, malt, hops and caramel coming later. The flavor is sweet and malty, with lots of hops and some alcohol. Full body and a dry, slightly astringent finish with some roastiness. A nice beer with a nice, long bitterness. (060513)
