Amber color, white head. Bitter taste with citrus, peach, floral hops, toast and a bit of pine. Bitter finish with citrus and fruits. Excellent real ale.

Cloudy dark caramel colour. Nice smoky flavour. Also quite sweet. Very good.

Hazy gold. Not a pretty beer to look at. A strange aroma of honey, cheese and smoked bacon. Malty taste with medium to strong bitterness and a general background of pork scratchings. I'm unconvinced that this is anything like the beer they drank in 18th century Hampshire, however I enjoyed the eclectic experience.
