3.4 Rich dark amber in colour, strong malty taste leaves your mouth tingling. Smooth drink with good head

3.3 Cask handpull at The Crosse Keys London as Titanic Captain Smith’s Strong Ale, 5.2%. Dark amber, translucent and still with a small beige head. Aroma is bready, grains, crackers. Body is smooth with soft carbonation. Taste is bready and resinous, astringent carpet and some honey sweetness, building bitterness and a lasting musty linger. A nice bitter if a bit uninspiring.

3.9 Plummy and quite thick beer. Stoney fruits. Caramel coffee flavours. Sweetness at start becomes bitter. Nice amber appearance and excellent strength with and bite on the palate.

3.3 Cask. Aroma is richly fruity plum caramel. Pours chestnut with foamy white top. Strong initial lacing diminishing. Taste is also stoned fruit with toffee malt but the sweetness is superficial and it has a bitter finish on the palate. Then again this may just be a barrel end.

3.9 Thick textured amber ale, foamy head. Plummy, stone fruits. Hints of fortified wine. A raisiny sweetness. Very rich.

3.1 bottle@Alus tirgus Apuze. Classy ESB with enough fruity, crystal malts aroma and flavor notes. Medium body, small frothy top, white one. Tasty and drinkable. Some reddish notes in color.

3.2 Lovely maltiness, caramel, some light molded wood, light sweetness with light bitterness, bit oily. Decent

3.6 On cask at the White Cross. Appearance - deep amber to red with a decent head. Nose - toffee generally. Taste - toffee intermingled with some sharp red fruit and some booze. Palate - mediumbodied with a creamy yet crunchy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - I’m not sure what this was fully intended to be but it is a very interesting and complex beer.

3.5 Chestnut with off white head that last and leaves ringlets right down glass roast fudge caramel taste sweet with a bitter finish very enjoyable

3.2 Titanic er en øl der glider nemt ned....Ja, og så til den seriøse anmeldse . Sødlig smag med meget gær eftersmag. En øl man godt kan drikke en enkelt af, men så heller ikke mere. God til at starte med, men bliver hurtig vammel.
