Delicate red-orange-hued malt-sweetened fruit-spiced medium body. Very watery and lacking character. Brewery defunct: 2001.

GREENE KING OLDE SUFFOLK ENGLISH ALE
Wonderful oak-aged English ale gains superb sweet-candied sherry-burgundy resonation, overriding tartly vinous grape tannins and sturdy coffee-mocha insistence. Frothy cascading head and bristling carbolic hop thrust perk up plum-raisin-grape conflux for lusty dried fruited undertow.

KUHNHENN FOURTH DEMENTIA OLDE ALE
Luxurious alcohol-soaked ruby-chestnut slow sipper provides massive barleywine influence to dry sherry-bourbon medicinal warmth and ripe fruited template. Prune, fig, and rum raisin encounter rewarding brandy-soaked orange-bruised apple-candied cherry, peach, and tangerine zest embedding chewy molasses bed. Busy backdrop finds anise stickiness thickening peat-smoked tobacco-dried oaken woodiness. Aggressive cognac finish increases depth.
