On tap at Arizona Wilderness, pours a hazy amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out toasted oak, English malt and bready notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with English bready malt, some toffee and oak, almost a subdued whiskey presence. Ordinary indeed, but quite well-done for what it is despite not being exciting. Decent.

Growler pours with a clear copper body that has thin gold edges and supports a weak tan head of bubbles. The aroma offers up a load of hops that have an earthy green bell pepper and spicy shallot hoppiness along with a mild spicy oak note. Behind those I get a light estery malt sweetened yeast note as well as a touch of roasted malts. The taste begins with earthy spicy shallot to green bell pepper and it then ramps up in hop bitterness to midway just as a spicy oak note surfaces. To the finish an estery yeasty note and a touch of roasted malts are noticed as the earthy shallot onion like spicy hop bitterness builds right into the after taste. Cool brew with lots going on for such a small beer.

Draft - Toffee, grains and some nuts. Cloudy brown with a thin head. Toasted malts and nuts. Nice flavours, a little much for a true English bitter, but very well done.
