“Brewed using a cool, slowly fermentation process together with the finest
quality Maris Otter barley and Fuggles & Goldings hops”
It smells a bit like vegetable stock. The taste is quite sweet, fruity with a
hint of melon. Made of malted barley.

“dark in colour with a mocha coloured head and a slightly fruity aroma with a
hint of chocolate… enjoyed as the ideal accompaniment to eating Oysters and
other shellfish…”
Slightly sweet with a bitter aftertaste which reminds of chocolate (with
enough imagination). Made of malted barley and wheat.
Marston's Brewery, Burton upon Trent, England. 4.5% alcohol.

“…brewed to a recipe believed to be over 500 years old… using malted
barley, whole leaf English Aroma hops and well water. Owd Roger offers an
explosion of rich fruit flavours with a dry bitter-sweet finish.”
Tastes of red fruits (cherry?) and the empty glass smells like honey and
ginger bread. Made of barley.
Marston's Brewery, Burton upon Trent, England. 7.6% alcohol.

« Brewed using 100% Golden Promise malt, one of the olders varieties of
brewing barley. … full-flavoured malt, popular with Scotch Whisky
distillers … all the distinctiveness of a fine single malt whisky. »
Neither bitter nor sweet, with a little something that reminded me of whisky
(or was my sense of taste influenced by the name?)
Marston's Brewery, Burton upon Trent, England. 4.2% alcohol.

« … still brewed in oak casks… classic smooth full flavoured taste… »
A reddish beer, with a slightly flowery smell and maybe a bit of yeast too.
Not too bitter.
