Hazy amber beer, thin head. Tangy, fruity aroma with a little malt. Flavour has the same, with a good maltiness be to it and a little spice perhaps. Hearty and very tasty.

Very, very good.

Bottle. Cotteridge Beano v2. Lovely, fruity malts. Treacle. Some woody notes. Taste is light sweet. Some tang. Light astringency on the palate. Good stuff. Smells better than it tastes, though.
