Clear copper with a largish rocky light tan head. The aroma is sweet malt and mild British hops. The flavor is nice, fuggles, slight cinnamon, with a nice bit of caramel. Really quite a pleasant beer. Yum.

A decent bitter. The head goes away quickly. A little hops and some bread in the aroma. The flavor is relatively light with some apple. Finishes with little aftertaste. I didn't find the finish dry, as many others, but more like raspberries.

Pours with big brown head that is quickly discipating. Amber in colour. The nose is bitter and hoppy with just a hint of malts. The taste has this kind of lager kick to it. But there is bitter and sourness. The body is medium. Overall not that bad but I just dont like that lager kick I am getting.

Cloudy Auburn colored, thin head. Nutty, peppery aroma, nice, full mouth feel. Nicely bitter, dry oaky finish.
