| Sampled this winter warmer special in Esquires, Glasgow (JDW) in November 2007. Copper red in colour with a thin white head and good lacing. Powerful malty aroma with a hint of nutmeg and cloves. Smooth juicy mouthfeel. Pale malt complexes give a robust almost spicy digestive malt base. Overipe figs and plump juicy raisins impart an initial sweet syrupy fruit note. Warming complex aftertaste of dry woody oak and creamy vanilla. A well crafted winter warmer. |

| A low aroma ale with all but a thin malty taste being its only saving grace. Far to astringent. Basically this is poor but not undrinkable. |

| Brassy coloured special ale for the World Cup. Rich and bitter initially with a tart, tangy background. Not bad for a GK ale. |

| Sampled this Autumnal themed ale in Tennents Bar, Glasgow in October 2008. Clear pale copper in colour with a thin white head. Dry dusty hops in the aroma and thin mouthfeel. Thin pale malt in the lacklustre body, noted a slight hint of redcurrant fruit. Strong metallic aftertaste of hop resins dominate the cloying finish. Poor effort from Greene King. |

| A version of a former old favourite. Light brown and smooth with a tangy, malty taste. Sweet overtones and a tarty finish. |
