Rooftop is a smooth, easy drinking beer that has a deep, natural red hue, derived from the use of some top grade specialty malts. Rooftop is packed with toffee, nut and caramel flavours with a lovely spicy hop note that makes it very 'sessionable'.

	Sampled this one some time ago at a local pub.Was suprised to see it ranked so high here, i was not overly impressed.Found it very bitter with a nasty aftertaste.I never tried so much as a 2nd serve, maybe i will give the bottles a try.Could have been a bad batch or dirty lines.It looked great, nice large competitvly priced serve,just didnt do it for me flavour wise.

	What a fantastic beer! Very dark coloured lager with a generous head when poured. Strong toffee & chocolate aroma and when drunk leaves a pleasant malty flavour on your tongue.
