Bottle from Sainsburys. Orange amber colour, nice malts with caramel flavours. Caramel on nose not a lot of hop which lets down the finish slightly. Enjoyed the malty flavours though

(bottle) Deep amber colour with a medium foamy off-white head. Floral hoppy aroma with oranges and toasted malts. Soft sweetbitter flavour, medium body. Nice balance between the initial sweet and toasty maltiness, a nutty and fruity palate and the almost lasting bitterhoppy finish.

An amber beer with a nice light brown head. The aroma is sweet nutty, combined with some fruits, spices, and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of nuts, caramel, and fruit, with a bitter hoppy very dry end - almost woody. Really good balance.

Bottled. Dark copper coloured with white foamy head, which disappears quickly. Hoppy nose with fruitish hints. Very wellbalanced taste, mainly of fruits, but also bitterness. Mouthdrying effect, but still very fresh mouthfeel.

Amber with a small white head. Smells of hops and nuts. Flavor is nutty, with lots of hop backing. Decent brew.

Cask. Semi-dark colour. Refreshing. Bitter, but with flowery overtones......

Bottle. Nutty sweet aroma. Not a dramatic head. Very nice color. A very pleasant bitterness with a slight nuttiness and just enough carbonation. An extremely pleasing ESB and beer overall.

[Cask at Cockney Pub, Århus] An amber beer with no head, that has no aroma. The flavor is very hoppy from aroma hops - which gives it notes of flowers and elderflower. An average bitter.
