A hazzy reddish brown lager with a thin light moka head. A grassy wet mash aroma, very green, pungeant. In mouth, a roasted malt with lots of burned bitterness, very nutty, with light chocolate notes. Medium bodied. Tasted with Probstk, May 2007. Thanks to Piscator for the trade.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a small, off-white head and a hazy amber body. Mild british hops and lots of caramel and malt. Taste is hoppy with dark fruits, malty and caramel coming next with a bit of heat from the alcohol. Kind of fizzy and a bit too dry for the style. Otherwise a good british barelywine.

Bottle courtesy of Oakbluff: Poured a deep brown color ale with an average foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of deep caramel and toffee malt is quite interesting. Taste is a nice mix between some caramel and toffee malt notes with a medium dry hoppy finish. Full body with some good carbonation. Very well done over all but was hoping ( and would have like) a hoppier finish.
