Bottle: Amber coloured, unclear, smaller off-white foamy layer; sweet-malty nose with lots of peppery hops in the second row; medium bodied, solid bitter-sweet flavour; sweetish-malty finish with a delicate hoppy aftertaste. Delicious english brew.......

Bottle into a pint glass. Pours orangey gold with a small head that goes away fast. The aroma is huge skunk and a bit of malt. The flavor is a hint of skunk with lots of haylike malt and a dash of butter. There is a hoppy dryness to the finish as well, but the skunk covers it a bit.

Maybe my bottle was just too old?

Bottle at The Penguin Beer-Bobbing/13 Beers of Halloween tasting. Dusty yellow amber with a fine lacing lid. Cakey aroma with fig, raisin, caramel and butter. Slick and Germanic with hay, marzipan and fig notes. Candy floss afters. OK.

Thanks mom. Pours a hazed orange color with a fluffy head. Nose was biscuity and apple-like. Deep malty flavors with biscuits and apple notes, some mineral, a little sweetness...spicey hop notes give a bit of balance, though it remains dominantly malty. However, its a nice, clean biscuity malt profile and is actually refreshing and a big change from what I’ve been drinking over the last several years.

From a bottle purchased from the Bottle Barn in Santa Rose, CA this poured a very clear light amber with a very small and quickly dissipating head that left almost no lacing. The nose is light caramel malts with some grassy hops. Medium mouthfeel and body. Flavor is a grainy malt with just a hint of bitterness.

Bottle. Pours with a small white ehad over a hazy amber-ornage body. Smells like freshly buttered toast. A really thick fouthfeel. Tastes of honey-with a hint of peach and a lightly resinous-spicy hops. Nice.

Appearance: Pours a near clear, amber-hued body with a smallish, sudsy, white head. If nothing else, it does look nice. Smell: Lightly sweet-scented malts overtaken by a strong waft of grain husks. Some earthy, grassy hops to be found but they’re having a tough time getting past all those grains. Taste: Sweetish pale maltiness positively littered with discarded grain husks. Meager hint of dried fruits. Touch of muted citrus along with some leafy, earthy hops and a light bitterness. Continued graininess. Dry finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-low carbonation. Drinkability: No thanks, guys. So far, I’m finding these Moorhouse’s brews to be tremendously grainy and husky.
