Duchy Originals Organic Ale

Bottle: Murky copper, light sticky head, some lacing. Nose of light oxidized malt and grassy hops. Light oak and fig, nice feigned aging. The flavor is musty and malty. Thick restrained finish. Meh.

Reddish copper with a loose off-white foam. In the nose it comes across malty with a clear caramel and bisquit side and sub-notes of dried dark fruit. The taste starts with caramel, mineral crispness, a very light mouthfeel that some would consider watery, and a significant amount of carbonation for the style. After the initial impression it shifts into a floral hoppy note that gently subsides as a drying bitterness grows.

Bottle This one pours out a amber rust topped with a off white head. Aroma of thick malt. Tast more malt and boy O boy you could tell this was Organic. I said it before. What is it with organic brews and not tasting that good???

Not my favorite example of the style. Malt and English hops, but not Marris Otter, not Fuggles or Goldings. More floral than bitter in the taste, although moderate bitter finish. Overall sense is a beautiful beer, more watery than bitter. Beautiful deep amber, clear, with bright head that vanishes quickly. Nose of malts and floral hops. Taste of malt and floral hops, but without intensity, moderate bitter finish. Thin in the mouth.

Bottle: Hazy, reddish amber pour with a medium beige head. Nose of bitters and malt. Flavor is earthy with malts and roastiness, nice bitters presence. A little caramel and toffee. Nice representation of the style.

Bottled. Pours a reddish shade. Some hops and bitterness.Not bad,not awesome.

Bright golden colour with a large, rocky, almond coloured head. A nice lace clings to the glass as emptied. The nose is fresh anxd vegetal with some fruit and grass mixed in there. There is a very light bitterness at the front followed by grass. It certainly is organic tasting, but there’s not much going on. One-sided and boring.

Well, it is bitter all right. I guess if I had to be fair, it is what it is, for wha it was trying to accomplish. Amber color, not a lot of head. smells of malts. It was ok, I won;t get it again, but it was ok.
