Bottle, thx to larsga. Itβs a dark, dark brown beer with a nice dark beige head. Sweetish, caramel notes with some roasted malts. Sweet, caramel flavor, roasted, almost sugary, with some roasted bitterness. Medium body. Sweet in the finish. A quite tasteful beer, but far too sweet. (090605)

Bottle, 285ml, thx to larsga. Itβs a clear, golden beer with a medium-sized white head. Strange fruity nose that is somehow nice as well. Caramel notes, a little biscuity malt and fruityness in the flavor, some bitterness too, and a metallic touch in the finish. Medium body, dry. Sure drinkable, but a bit strange. Hard to believe the commercial description saying itβs a typical English pale ale. (090605)

Draught: Poured a dark brown with a thin off white head. Aroma is sweet with malts, yet has a suttle soft hops presents. Taste is similar with a sweet thick chewy malt upfront and a bitter hop leaf finish.

Fizzy yellow-golden color with a small white head. Aroma of limes and grainy notes. Really sweet flavor with grainy maltiness, artificial sweetener, and a cheap lemon-lime soda. Light-bodied. Pretty bad.

At a tasting, thanks DSG. Thick small brown reddish head which quickly dissapears, impregnable deep brown colour with some reddish taints, aroma of dates, figs, sour bread abd a whiff of a mature camambert. very light rosted coffee flavours with a little light bitterness, light body and a watery texture, almost no aftertaste, some faint bitter and sourness which fade quite quickly.

Bottle sample at a tasting. Thanks mom for bringing this from Malta! Black with a medium brown head. Aroma of milk-chocolate, some coffee, roast, light creamy notes and a bit of dark fruits. Sweet flavor with some fruits, chocolate, light acidic notes and a bit of yeast. Light to medium-bodied. Too thin. Aroma is promising but the flavor doesnβt deliver.

Had a bottle of this while I was in Malta. Fizzy yellow stuff at itβs worst. Pale yellow, frothy head. Grassy aroma, bitter grassy flavor. What did you expect?
