Clear, dark red beer with a light malt aroma. Taste is a fairly traditional bitter. Bitter malt, a touch of hop and some fruitiness in there. Bit of toffee too. Unremarkable but drinkable.

(Cask at Pembury Tavern, Hackney, London, 25 Apr 2013) Dark reddish brown colour with brief, foamy, beige head. Malty nose with caramel, red fruit and blood orange. Malty taste with notes of caramel, dried fruit, slightly toasted malt and a gentle, spicy bitterness. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Hardly exciting, but drinkable.
