Hazy Amber orange color topped by a medium sized rocky beige head. Soft, citrusy, earthy malt aroma has hints of tea and nuts. Flavor is light and refreshing with notes of brewed tea and toasted malt. Slightly tart malty middle. Light herbal hop finish is dry and chewy.

2016 catch up - A good bitter that is verging on a best bitter. Plenty of malt and bitter hops and an overall pleasant mouth feel. Very tasty indeed.
