On tap at JW Sweetman, pours a clear copper with a small off-white head. Nose is fairly light, with floral hops. Flavour is fairly bitter, with floral hops and a fairl harsh astringency on the finish. Quite a pleasant hop-forward pale. Nice.

On tap. Smooth in the beginning. More floral than the Red Ale. The mainpart is smooth, slightly floral, caramel-bitter. The aftertaste is smooth, not that intense and slightly bitter. Ok. 10/12/10/10
