[i] [b] Bottle passed onto me by Glen, cheers mate! [/i] [/b] Poured Orange amber with white head, some sweetness and also sharpness are immediately apparent. Good bitterness, rich full flavour, good spiciness, aroma like clove spiked orange’s with some chinese five spice there as well. Preferred this to the Firebox!

Ruby red color, small beige head. Wood and molasses in the nose. Portwineous flavor and palate. Wood, berries... short finish. Not really a barley wine, more like an old ale.

Small white head. Slightly hazy orange body. Light floral, fruity aroma with resiny, lemony notes. Dry-sweet resiny lemony taste with notes of straw and caramel. Clear hop presence in this one. Aftertaste is the same. Nice, especially for such a light beer. Definitely defined by the hops. (0.5l bottle at Cardinal as On the Tiles.)

Medium fine-laced offwhite lasting head. Deep yellow body, slightly cloudy, with light carbonation. Light fruity, malty aroma with balanced soft resiny hops. Deep sweet fruity malty taste with strong resiny hop notes. Clean, fresh, smooth mouthfeel. Dry, floral, resiny aftertaste with malty notes. Taste is quite powerful. Dry resiny taste with fruity notes lingers. Excellent! (0.5l bottle at Cardinal.)

Bottle 0,5l. Deep, deep red. Almost black. A medium sized fluffy head. Pleasant aroma of coffee. Flavor dominated by chocolate with the coffee returning in the aftertaste. Well rounded.

Bottle. (As On The Tiles) What a gusher! Half the contents of the bottle ended up on gunnfryd’s floor and table. When in the glass, it’s a clear, golden beer, except for some microfloaties that is, and it has a beige head. Fruity, hoppy aroma with some sweetness. The flavor has a pleasant fruityness to it, and a little bitterness that I would like more pronounced. Medium body. Fruityness and hoppy bitterness in the finish. A sessionable ale, fruity and refreshing. (071215)

Pour is a very cloudy golden with a large white head that stays around for awhile. Aroma is a super crisp hop with some biscuit and grass. Flavor is a bit citrus with some lingering hop and pine. Finish is very bitter but smooth. A good sipping beer and at only 4.3% you could a few of these in an evening.
