On tap at JW Sweetman, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Nose and flavour are clean but pretty restrained, with cereal notes and bready caramel notes. Restrained and clean, but pretty boring. I don't understand why this is rated so well. Pretty ordinary.

Draught. Excellent lacing. Aroma is heavy malty, earthy, with some caramel. Light bitterness. Very good.

on tap. Smooth in the beginning. The beer starts malty with earthy hints, that gets more intense to the mainpart. Floral-smooth, caramel. The aftertaste is smooth, floral, sweetish-bitter. Nice for a Red Ale. 10/12/11/10
