Only available during the TT in June. A pleasant ruby coloured ale, slightly sweet with subtle hop flavours coming through from the late addition Challenger and Fuggles hops. Malty with hints of toffee. Appeals to the Newcastle Brown Ale Brigade.

Light copper with nice lacing. Brown sugar and butter - dessert beer I guess. The diacetyl might be too big on the tongue (especially that slimy palate) but Bushy’s seems to often have this problem. OK, for a caramel malt bitter.

Cask gravity at Kingston BF 2007. Reddish deep copper, with lasting bubbly off white head. Either quite malty or suffering from slight diacetyl. OK in mouth. Flavours are quite muted. Some toffee in a smooth mouthfeel. Some hop on end. OK, but not exciting.
