Delicate and devilishly drinkable, this quintessentially Kentish ale lays the county's hallowed, herbaceous hops on a firm, biscuity bed of pale and crystal malt. Endowed with an inviting auburn-amber hue and a tantalising toffee-ish aroma, it's an enlivening English ale that, given its unassuming ABV, pleasures the palate with a remarkable fullness of flavour.

Appearance is clear and amber, a white frothy head of about half a finger, which lasts well. Aroma- malty, some hops, toffee and raisin hints. Taste- bitterness, definite hop presence, fruity hints, slight toffee, almost vinous in the background, thin mouthfeel. A reliable ale.
