Small coarseish offwhite head. Clear deep brownish body. Dusty caramelly nutty aroma with syrupy wooden notes. Dry-sweet dusty wooden caramelly taste with nutty earthy notes. Mild, smooth mouthfeel. Mid-bodied. Dry-sweet, almost bitter, dusty caramelly wooden aftertaste with oily strawy toffee notes. Lovely! Drinkable, harmonic, and subtle. (0.5l cask at Bishops Arms, Copenhagen.)

En av mina favoriter av engelska ales. Doft: knäck och blommor Smak: Blommig och fruktig, besk marmelad, karamell, mineraler, ganska stram och besk för stilen. Jag minns den som lite smakrikare och fruktigare, men fortfarande riktigt god.

0.5l bottle. This one pours a clear dark amber body with a small slowly fading off-white head. Aroma is quite subtle. Hints of caramel, some bitter hops and perhaps even a little fruity. Average carbonation, medium to light-bodied and it has a mild oily mouthfeel. Flavors are quite bitter with some burned caramel, toffee and it has a long lasting grassy-bitter aftertaste. Mnaah, drinkable but easily forgettable.

Well the clear glass worries me a bit. Pours a fairly clear deep amber color with a stingy white head that dissipates quickly to a ring. The initial aroma coming out of the first pour were skunky, luckily as the glass sat it subsided. Smells of butterscotch, caramel and toffee very sweet smelling with a little earthy mineral bitterness. Taste follows the smell fairly well, but the skunk came back. Sweet and malty with an earthy mineral edge. Moderate carbonation, medium body with a sweet bubbly mineral water mouthfeel. The mercaptan killed this one for me. Not a bad brew, but probably not something I would seek out again.
