Bottle. Lovely beer. Good malty flavour, with some typical Shepherd Neame hop bitterness. A superbly drinkable beer, be careful it is 6.5%!

A typical british ale. Nice bitterness from the hops, but too thin and not enough malt. Low head.

Bottled.<i/> Amber with some faint notes of toffee and hop in the aroma. Fresh and vinous and very malty flavour.

Copper/orange color, small head. Malty and fruity in the aroma. Also with some fruits, maybe apples. Some hops in the flavor but most of al lthis one is malty and fruity.

Light cobber coloured ale, beige head. Malty sweet flavour. Fruit. Nuts? (faintly metallic?!). Lightly hopped. Overall a fair ale - spitfire is a better choice.

Amber with lack of head. Sweet, caramel, nuts with pleasent bitterness. Silky mouthfeel.
