Commercial Description:
No colouring agents or artificial additives are used in this ancient Lett family recipe. The robust amber colour comes from the judicial use of crystal and carastan malts. Remember the ancient brewery credo, "We only sell what we can't drink ourselves."

can. Poured clear orange-amber with a lasting creamy off-white head. Medium bodied, average carbonation. Roasty, malty, and some citrus peel flavours. Moderate bitterness throughout.

Pours with almost no head and a red color. Complex aroma of malt, caramel and hops. Nice and sweet flavors of malt and caramel. A nice enjoyable beer, more malty than hoppy.

Eye-pleasing chestnut appearance. Deep, dark aromas of heavy chocolate malt and molasses. Not as full-flavoured as expected, which actually plays to this beer’s advantage. Layers of chocolate, coffee and molasses are tastefully restrained, creating a beer that can either be quaffed or sipped, depending on the mood. A well-balanced brew.

473mL can from an OCB mixed pack. Pours a pale red with a large white head. The aroma actually has some real Noble hops in there, nice, kind of metallic, wet dog, not much in the way of malts. Kind of smells bad to be honest. Flavour is much better though, peppery Noble hops upfront met with some nice roasty caramalts, like sugar crisp in the finish. Aftertaste has some nice crystal malt quality to it. The hoppiness plays off the malts well throughout. Everything integrates well, very good balance. By Trafalgar standards this is excellent and quite enjoyable. I might buy it every so often if it were sold individually.

650 ml bomber. Amber colour, thick lasting off-white head. Aroma is very dusty and musty with a hint of maltiness. Flavour shows butterscotch, berry fruitiness. No bitterness and a bit too sweet. Ok, but not great.
