HogTownHarry (3286), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Jul 7, 2005 Updated: Aug 24, 2005 Bottle (550ml). Pours a lively, cloudy reddish orange - clouds and clouds of off-white head, hugely rocky. Aroma of orange peel, some hops, vague roasted malt, tinge of sharp alcohol. Taste is a bit like biting into an unpeeled orange, some sharp hops, not much malt (almost burnt), but still light and almost fruity in the mouth, nice contrasts. The citrus bitterness is the main finish. I like it, but I’m not wild about it. Would like to try it on cask in the UK.
MiP (6029), Flensburg, Germany Sep 21, 2008 Bottle at EBF08. Weak fruity aroma. Clear dark amber colour. The flavour is spicy from the hops. Thin to medium mouthfeel. masto (77), Helsinki, Finland Sep 15, 2008 Bottle 50cl. Clear dark reddish brown, lacy head. Zesty woody hoppy aroma, reminiscent of a mild APA aroma. I like this. Malty with a mild-standard but almost exquisite woody-flowery bitterness. Medium with low carbonation, smooth. Dry woody-ish finish. MrAleman (112), guildford, Surrey, England Sep 14, 2008 Wow, what a tasty treat this was, so full of flavour of hops and malt, a great Adnams bitter and i’d recommend it to any bitter fans. yespr (6943), Copenhagen O, Denmark Sep 14, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden with a fully gone head. Mild spiced and hoppy aroma. Bitter and mild breadish flavour. Light bitter finish. Simple yet also clean and crisp. Linnet (32), , Sweden Sep 6, 2008 aroma of fruits and malt and some citrusy notes of hops. Flavour is restrained but well balanced with some biterness and notes of fruits. This beer came from a can, I remember drinking this on tap in England and liking it better then.
