Sampled cask conditioned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.
Deep golden, lightly hazy. Butter toffee aroma. Fairly sweet with filling, rounded mouthfeel. Chewy, despite it's low gravity. Mild flavour of honey and caramel, and a finish with low bitterness. Very British...

Nut brown. Sweet and rounded, soapy, creamy and caramelly. Medium bodied with notes of coffee. Whipped cream finish with absolutely no bitterness. A fragile subtle beer, but I agree with RichardGretton in that the commercial description is way out of line.

Reddish beer with a lightly hopped aroma and a watery if not plain flavour. Overall a resonable beer but nothing like the commercial description.

Sampled cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Amber coloured. Very discrete both in aroma and flavour. Light body, slightly burnt with notes of crystal malt. Sweetish with just a hint of flowery hops in the finish. Unremarkable but very drinkable.

Golden coloured and near clear. Sulphury, fruity, appley, flowery nose. Sweet, rather malty and well hopped. The fruitiness is dominating.

Beautiful clear reddish amber appearance. Odd compost heap aroma. Sweet and light bodied with plastic mouthfeel, low hop rate and notes of old prunes in the finish. These flavours does not impress me.
