A darker premium bitter, well-hopped but with a smooth mouthfeel. A complex balance of malts gives a well-rounded flavour.

500ml bottle from, I think, Borough Wines. Pours mahogany brown with a lovely sweet malty aroma. Has a dark bitterness with complex earthy malts, an interesting character with a smooth sessionable quality.

Deep runy color, good brown head, lace. Aroma has caramel malts, dish cleanser citrus and berries. Light to medium bodied. Caramel malts, berries and quite aggressive hoppyness in the finish and aftertaste. Some darker malts lurking too. Interesting.

Bottled. A unclear amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of caramel, malt, and yeast. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, wet hay, and fruits, leading to a dry and bitter finish.
