A light amber beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is spicy and fruity - with hints of nuts and caramel. The flavor is nutty, malty, and caramelic with a very dry toffee end.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pretty, light brown colour (unfortunately partially from colourants) with a rich head. Some caramelish sweetness from the malts balanced by the bittering hops. Weak notes of fruit and nuts. Decent, but no real treat. 090301

35,5 cL bottle. Pours deep orange and clear with a light brown and diminishing head. Sweet and roasted malt and slight citric aroma. Flavour is soft malty, roasted to a bit of toffee, in addition it has a slight acidic/citric twist. Ends dry and bitter - very classic English.

Bottled (5.1%) Brownosh amber, clear, fairly rich head. Lightly ashy nose. Sweet with dense malt and rounded ligtly soapy mouthfeel. Perfumy, lightly peppery and fruity with some melon. Low bitterness. Streamlined. Not an attention catcher.

Bottle, 5.1%, made in Britain. Semi-sweet, caramelly aroma. Clear amber colour. Fizzy, frothy head. The flavour is caramelly with some bitterness, rough at first, but turns more pleasant. Gets a little sour towards the finish.

Canned (5.1%, so this one most likely). Clear copper colour, small head. Aroma is caramel malts, some slight wineish hints as well as hoppyness. Flavour is caramel and hoppyness along with strong balancing maltyness. A very smooth and pleasant brew.
