Bottle at The Cockney Pub, Århus
Golden color, big bubbles, persistent head, of medium size. The aroma shows some nice cereals. The flavor has a strong dry toffee flavor, with strong bitterness; long final. A reasonable Golden Ale, nothing impressive here.

Bottle, Shamesburys, Upton. Poured a clear straw gold, with a fairly small white head. Nice hoppy and grapefruit aroma. Fresh, clean taste with the same characteristics as the aroma and a lingering dry hoppy bitter finish. Nicely balanced and pretty tasty. Went a treat with a quarter of crispy duck and pancakes.

bottle from TuckersMaltings. Deep black colour, mid-sized creamy beige head. Aroma of coffee and bitter chocolate. Full-bodied, pleasantly malty and pleasant hoppy flavours with hints of coffee, cocoa powder, bitter chocolate, raisins and a touch of smoke. A delicious brew to say good-bye to 2008.
