Smells of soft sweet cinnamon and sugar, has good foam on a muddy brown body. Flavour is a soft mix of ale and cinnamon. Mouthfeel is full and crisp. This is good and as advertised, though the flavours could be stronger.

Draft - Just like a cinnamon bun, including icing. Clear light copper with a decent beige head. Tastes just as it smells. So I don’t want a beer that tastes like a cinnamon bun, although a cinnamon bun that tastes like beer could be cool. That said, well done and true to description.

On tap at Storm, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small white head. Nose is exactly like a cinnamon bun, with lots of cinnamon and caramelized sugar. Flavour is identical - this doesn't fuck around - loads of cinnamon and a touch of icing sugar. Cool novelty beer, but doesn't hit the spot for me.

Draught at the brewery
Indeed the aroma directly brings to a cinnamon bun, soft and well constructed. The mouthfeel is semi sweet, the cinnamon is present but not overwhelming.
Pleasant beer.
