Bottle from Sainsburys. Pours a chestnut colour with a large thick creamy off white head. Fruity sweet aromas of red berries, strawberry jam, toffee and doughy bread. Taste is quite unusual with a lot more of the red berry notes, raspberries and blueberries. Some added leathery notes and very malty. The sweetness is balanced out well with a subtle earthy hop on the lingering finish. Full body with low almost flat carbonation and a very smooth mouthfeel. it’s ok and a unique winter time beer but i wouldn’t want to drink more than a couple at a time.

Cask ale, half-pint at Ship & Shovell. Shared with Finn. Off-white, bubbly head, lacing rings down the glass, clear, deep mahogany coloured body. Moderate smell of dusty hops and caramel malts. Well balanced malt-fruity flavours, hints of peaches and mid-sweet malt. Rounded and clean bittersweet tail. Nice. (London, 30.09.2023).

500 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet Sandnes Kvadrat. ABV is 5.2%. Copper colour, moderate head, slightly off-white. Aroma of malts, toffee and caramel. Flavour of malts, toffee, citric and earthy hops, not too sweet, well balanced, satisfying. Would buy again.

500ml bottle - Pours a clear golden colour with an average sized frothy near-white head. The aroma is fruity and malty, citrus and biscuity malts. A moderately sweet taste, biscuit malt, caramel, and lemony flavours with a decent hop bitterness.

Bottle. A clear copper colored beer with a dense two finger off-white head. Cute lacing. Malty, fruity aroma with a hint of pine cones. Even some tea. It's medium bodied, decently carbonated with a gentle bitterness. The flavor has some tropical fruityness along with pine cones, citrus zest and a touch of grass. Long finish. Traditional British, with a modern twist. Quite dull. 230825

Fles gedeeld door Koenzie, geprobeerd met Roelzie. Het is een helder amberkleurig bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van mout en toffee. De smaak is moutig, zacht zoet en ebt snel weg.

Rocky white head on well carbonated clear amber coloured body. Sweet fruity & confectionery aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a crisp back. Sweet, malt, lemon & wet cardboard tastes. Poor.
