Copper to Ruby Coloring? Spice, fruit. Malt and Hops. Fullers is not my favorite by personal taste, but they make an excellent effort here...worth keeping some around to age.

Bottle, pours hazy brown, minimal head. Malt and hoppy aroma, with some fruit. Big english malt, darka dn sweet bread, right balance of hops, bittersweet. Smooth malty dough finish, clean. A great English ale.

Slightly cloudy deep orange red. Aroma of malt and a licorice kind of fruity aroma. Flavor profile does a sort of "hops first" attack on the tongue, and then follows with a sweet, lingering maltiness that lasts nicely. This stuff is well made and delicious.

Big bottle. Pours deep mahogony, thin head, fine lace. Aroma and flavor of malt and raisins; nutty and dry finish. Delicious.

Deep red with cream head, Sharp hops followed by long bitterness. Very strong flavours. I like this a lot. Bitterness in the finish is quite amazingly strong and long lasting. Palate clean after a smooth mediumly thick malt. Probably put this up with Ruddles as one of the ones worth buying at hideous import pricing due to the unique strengths.

Brown bottle is a good idea. good color. Well hopped. Very drinkable roasted without overt coffee. Some smoke in aftertaste. An example of great bottle conditioning. Nice lace and graininess. Bit of harsh bitterness but still very balanced. Some spicy malt, barelywine notes. A must try.

Bottle at GBBF 06’: great beer, very malty, very rich, full bodied, lots of dried fruits, some spices, roasted flavor all the way through and great hoppiness along side that which leads to a great bitterness. very recommended.
