Bottle. poured a pale copper colour with a full white head. The aroma is of Goldings hops and crystal malt. The beer has plenty of body is full and has the properties of a bitter, light on malt with a strong bitter finish. A good beer to me.

330ml bottle. Golden and sticky looking. Pours without a head if so desired. Superb bitter aroma, plenty nutty, some toffee-sweet. Enormous but well balanced flavour - spoilt a little with a mettalic tinge, but otherwise a fullsome malt and bitter combination. Moreish.

(Bottle 50 cl) Dark golden with a handsome, rich head. Weak, nutty, malty flavours with a marked, bitter finish. Decent, but not really very premium... 310700

Hazy, dark amber color with a small, quickly dissipating white head. Aroma of toasted malts, caramel and bread. Mildly sweet malt and caramel flavor that quickly dries and finishes with a decent hop bitterness. Thanks to EddieG for the bottle.

11.2oz bottle: This one pours a almost clear, reddish-amber color. There was some off-white foam, but it subsides quickly. The aroma is faint, and all I can get is some caramel malt from it. The taste is OK, but rather uninspiring. I get some caramel sweetness, maybe some faint hops. Also faintly bready. Neither bad nor good. Just a beer.
