Bottled. An amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of malt, hops, spices, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes spices, hops, malt, caramel, and a bit of alcohol, leading to a bitter finish.

On tap at the Lumsden. Aroma is toffee apple and caramelised bitter orange. In the mouth it’s full but refreshing, with plenty more fruit backed up by a strong caramel malt base. Really very good.

Bottle big thanks to Big Dave. It pours clear gold with medium white head. The aroma is fresh, orange peel, shebert, tangerine, kumquat, candy and white sugar. The taste is crisp, bitter action, orange peel, kumquat, sherbet, straw, white sherbet, some alcohol and grass with a dry finish. Medium bowl dry and fine, foamy carbonation. Drinks pretty easy. Decent.
