Kirkas, punertavan tummanruskea olut runsaalla vaaleanbeigellä ja reilusti pitsiä jättävällä vaahdolla. Kaunis olut. Tuoksussa salmiakkia, havuisuutta ja kevyttä greippisyyttä. Maussa samoin havuisuutta, salmiakkisuutta ja greippiä. Pitkä kevyen katkera ja greippinen, mutta samalla salmiakkisen pehmeä jälkimaku. Keskitäyteläinen suutuntuma.

Bottle. Aroma is like a stout: roasted malt burnt barley, hop with pine needles. Taste: complex, almost buttery, burnt barley, light sweetness of caramel, noticeable hop bitterness with pine.

Nagy, tartós, bézs színű hab, fekete szín. Illata kellemetlen szúrós, komlós, citrusos. Íze keserű, gyantás és citrusos, de szokatlan variáció, számomra kifejezetten kellemetlen ízkombináció. Közepesen testes.

Cask @ Sportsman, Huddersfield. Clear brown coloured with a head. Has a mild roasted malt aroma and taste, with a strength, but not overbearing for the ale.
