Pours brown with a light tan head. The aroma has notes of fruity esters, caramel, and a little hop. The flavor has a caramel sweetness at the forefront but quickly becomes slighltly fruity and finishes smooth and mild.

Brownish red body with a half inch thick off-white head. Smells hoppy with some malt, but I noticed the hop first. Tastes roasty, malty and hoppy. Flavor does not overwealm, though. Rather enjoyable and fairly drinkable. Too bad they don’t make this anymore...

Poured a copper color with medium head that dissapated quickly. (good glass lacing) Sweet aroma with a hint of hop. Body was a bit thin and watery but overall it was a decent average beer. Goes down smooth with no nasty after taste. I would like to try it on tap.

Bottle (500ml). Clear light chestnut with a very large tan foamy lasting head. Malty and yeasty aroma, caramel, chocolate, fresh moderate herbal UK hops; dry - smells like a malty bitter. Taste mild roast chocolate malt, a little leafy and bark-y, soft herbal-floral hops, slightly sweet finish. The body’s a little thin, but not too bad for a bitter, appropriate carbonation and astringency, nice linger, no aftertaste or off-putting sourness - pretty decent.

Bottle. Malty, lightly nutty aroma with decent hops, hints at a thin bitterness. Floral and slightly stale, though. Brown-amber pour with a fluffy rocky lacy cream head. Flavor is dry and somewhat bitter, fruitiness is subdued and stale. Light-to-medium body, aftertaste is very lightly bitterish. Drinkable enough, but ultimately forgettable.

Bottle; nose is of dark fruits, malts, and a tiny bit of hops; copper colored with a medium beige head; flavor of caramel malts, a bit of fruits, and some light hop bitterness.
