Cask - Pours a clear dark amber colour with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is malt, caramel, fruit and leafy hops. A moderately sweet taste, caramel, malt and fruity flavours with moderate bitter finish. It's an average bitter.

Historical tick which I am adding as a rate so that I can see the impact it has on my stats. 500 Beers To Try Before You Die. A pub in the City. Decent enough bitter.
