Brown with a frothy head of moderate duration. Toffee aroma, earthy, with something like orange peel on top. Taste is sweetish with an odd tang at the finish. Is that supposed to be there, evidence of the “west coast style scotch ale”? At medium, the body stays fairly light for its potentcy. Mild carbonation. No sign of the alcohol. After initial doubts, this became pleasant.

Drunk on New Year’s Eve 2023 at Bonnie’s house. Amber with a frothy, white head. Aroma a mix of stone fruit and cereal. Moderate bitter. Medium-bodied, balanced carbonation. Straightforward. Ok.

Sticky, vague papaya hop note. Mellow bitterness. A bit too gloppy and not enough hop brightness.

Fra cask på GBBF aug-23, delt med Steven: nesten helt klar gylden med ok skum. Karameller, tropiske frukter, appelsinmarmelade, lette kryddertoner og litt vanilje. Hint av bourbon? Cremet munnfølelse. 7,2%.

1st August 2023
GBBF Day 1. Cask. Almost clear gold beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Light palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Thinnish malts, a light creamy sweetness getting slightly milky. Reasonably bright citrus. Light dry pine. Some hop spice on the fairly dry finish. Not bad.
