The colour was medium reddish amber brown, with a light head. The aroma was light and crisp, with some spicy malt. The falvour showed dry crisp smoky chocolate malt, and light hoppy crispness. This beer was quite, dry with well balanced malt and spicy flavours.

Note 1 I am not really a beer expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these beers. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these beers as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on freshness and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
