0.33 l bottle from 'Bierothek', best before July 2022. Clear, ruby with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, minimally grassy-spicy, a little herbal-fruity aroma of caramel, marmelade, nuts and light tea. Gently sweet, malty, slightly bitter, moderately grassy-spicy, a bit herbal-fruity taste of caramel, marmelade, nuts, tea and some raisins, followed by a short, gently bitter, quite dry, moderately herbal-grassy finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Simole but tasty beer, truly British.

330ml bottle from trade with Rauchbierlover. Thanks chap. Pours unclear golden orange, nice dense white head that sticks around a while. Aroma is sweet, fruity, resinous. Taste presents a sweet resinous character overall, very lightly cloying with overripe peachy notes and very sweet malt. A little different to the norm, a bit old school perhaps. Not bad.

Small off-white head, reasonably stable over opaque chestnut beer. Malty nose with - I assume - British-intended wafts of diacetyl (not too much) and caramel. Later rainwater, wet dog, chocolate, brown bread. Caramel-, chocolatemalts in the mouth, but watered down, (mouldy) brown bread soaked in rainwater. Still rather sweetish in the end, bit liquorice-ish. Feels light bodied, lighter than a classical ESB as Fullers', f.i., despite being pretty slick. Almost nothing in the matter of aftertaste, just a hint at undescript bitterishness. This is indeed a (good) "quaff", but ESB is supposed to be just that tad above. Thanks to Joren for bringing, purchased at GeFeKo Berlin
