Beautiful Amber / Copper colour. Light and very drinkable. A great Yorkshire beer with tradition in every drop.

Pale amber-foxy beer with a mossy shine; perfect bottled simili of a B.C."H.". Lots of caramel and a bit of greenery, green leaves in the nose. Finishes as fresh garden herbs. Quite bitter taste, and a small sourish flavour, fresh, quite like a galvanic current. Finishes rather dry, reasonably hoppy. Refreshing, but very light; slight slickness. Why on earth don’t they bottle-condition this?? It might be quite the beer that way. Can’t you talk some sense in them, Dan?

Cask handpull at JDW Lord Moon of the Mall. Copper colour with thin beige head. Caramel/toffee aroma, some juicy malts in the mouth with an earthy/peppery hop drying finish. Above average session bitter. Hops have some citrus that is tasty

Sampled cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm.
Dark amber. Light orangey aroma. Medium sweet and very rounded. The body is light but firm, and the malt flavour is clean. There's some cookies in the finish, and the bitterness is moderate. A well balanced and well made bitterness.
