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.

Copper brown. Creamy off-white head and lace. Aroma is hops and toffee. Mouthfeel is watery, taste toffee caramel and lightly bitter finish. Unique bottle. (6/3/5/2/11 2.7)

Copper brown, small tanned head. Flowery, toffeish hoppy nose. Medium-bodied. Lots of toffee and some cardboard in the flavor. Late flowery hoppy bitterness. A bit unbalanced mouthfeel, I usually don’t like toffee - hoppy -combination. (6/4/4/2/11 2.7)

500 ml oldfashioned milk bottle - nice design. Copper coloured, moderate head. Lovely hoppy aroma, hints of ripe fruits and caramel. Bramling Cross hops account for a distinct bitter flavour and aftertaste, quite dry - I'd like some more malts to balance the hops, but that's the style, I guess. Still, this is a nice beer - will definitely buy again.

This is another typical English nitro can along the lines of Boddington's or Caffrey's. Dark golden amber color with a medium creamy off-white head. Medium thin lacing too. The aroma is mild hops. Medium-bodied and creamy with a lightly malty and hoppy flavor. The bitterness comes through more in the finish which is very dry. Ho hum.

An amber beer with no head. The aroma is slightly sweet and fruity. The flavor is of a good malt sweetness but a little flat. An OK ale.

[Cask at Cockney Pub] A dark orange beer with no head. The aroma is very faint with fruity notes. The flavor is very nice; sweet, fruity, casky and very bitter from a great hop. The bitterness lingers on the tongue. A great beer that invites to another pint.

Bottled. Reddish amber, average head. Nutty aroma. Dry and medium bodied. Fresh, soft and fruity with salty, really bitter finish. Not complex, but plain and very enjoyable.
