Cask at GBBF 2006. A hazy dark amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet spicy - especially nutmeg coming thru. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, and herbs, leading to a dry and slightly acidic end.

(bottle, with thanks to pivnizub) Clear, dark amber coloured effervescent hue with a creamy off-white layer. Dusty, slightly sweet dark malty aroma with a sourish fruity touch. Slightly sweet flavour, malty, sourish-fruity (red berries) taste with notes of caramel; slightly bitter and yeasty tart finish. Reminds me of some mediocre brews from Belgium.

[Cask at GBBF] Brownish amber. Very appley. Medium sweet with some toffeeish malt and medium body. Green apple finish. I wasn’t having much luck with the Welsh beers at GBBF.
