Bottle. Mahogany color. small head. Sweet aroma. Rich mouthfeel with some spices. Dry finish. But it’s sorta thin and lacks complexity.

Bottle. Ruby colour with off-white head. Lots of caramel in the aroma and a little sweet aroma. Sweet taste. Caramel and hops too. Leaving you with a little bitter aftertaste

Bottle from Sainsburys. Brown, with a beige head. Sweet, coco pops aroma. Oooh harsh, stinging malt flavour. This is only 5.3% - where does the seawater bitterness come from? Some clippings of a sweet body before the salt finish kicks. I have to say this does get better, but still it’s a bit harsh. Maybe.

Bottle. Overpowering crystal malt character. Slightly thin body. Dissapointing.

Bottled. Dark almost ruby coloured beer with a strong head. The aroma is hopped and slightly caramel and the flavour is very strongly hopped with a long dry caramel finish. Overall a well structured beer.
