Bottle. Copper bronze, thin white head and moderate condition. Earthy hops and a solid caramel sweet maltiness in the nose, full bodied and malty in the mouth with some fruity banana notes and a faint smokiness, hop bitter finish with some low malty caramel notes.

Bottle (50 cl) from Systembolaget. Dark clear amber. Fruity aroma with hints of apricot and burnt sugar. Smooth mouthfeel. Assertive bitterness that lingers on the tongue. Quite decent.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, warm amber golden with a small, off-white head. Nutty aroma. Medium body, again with nutty accents and some burned caramel. But overall rather dry with a lightly hoppy finish. 221106

Bottle 0,5l. 4,7%. Brown colour. A small white head. Not much aroma, but a caramellish, fruity flavour. A sourish bitter aftertaste with some sweetness.

500ml bottle from Eurotunnel Terminal Building France. Lots of the previous raters have got most of the elements of this beer. Yes it is very malty, yes it does have a strong hop presence. But I have spent the day drinking live cask and bottled conditioned beer. At the heart of it is a candy sugar dead tasting beer and no amount of malt or hop can make up for that. British brewers, please bottle condition your beers. Please, pretty please. I want to enjoy your beer as it should be, not this fake. Trust us. Malt and hop are good though

Dark amber colored, medium sized beige head. Lively carbonation. Sweetness, caramel, hops and mild bitterness in aroma. Medium bodied. Flavor is stronger than aroma: starts with mild caramel, turns out to have strongly dry and bitter aftertaste, which lasts. Strongly hopped, almost too much.

(Bottled) Clear, dark copper color with a smallish, foamy and lacy head. Toffee-malty aroma with some nutty English hops. Dry and bitter-hoppy, nutty and oaky flavor with sweet, balancing toffee. Light to medium-bodied, dry and slightly harsh palate with medium, fizzy carbonation. A quite typical, clean, dry and hoppy British ale. I prefer more fruitiness and less harsh hopping, though.
