Tight light brown head stayed on a highly carbonated caramel coloured still body. Malt, caramel & berry aroma. Medium bodied, feels a bath bomb in the mouth with too much carbonation. Clean on the back. Caramel, malt, chocolate & fruity tastes with a tangy finish.

Many thanks to SimonTomlinson for this bottle. Lots of malt and caramel. Nuts, roasted grain, mild smooth, with a dry caramelly bitterness. Very smooth and mild, round and fruity. Highly carbonated but very nice.

500ml bottle; BBE Jan 2019. Given to me by a friend. Poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard on 9th Nov 2018, the first beer of a mini tasting session with myself and no one else. Bright and clear amber body, off-white blanket of foam for a head. Bitter in nature with a dry, woody piney feel throughout. Hidden malty base gives balance. Liked it.
