Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily and slightly watery texture, soft carbonation. Increasing bitterness to finish. Quite pleasant overall.

On cask at the Rising Sun, Berkhamsted. Smooth malty dry beginning. Fresh and smooth with dry malty but a bit grainy hints. Easy to drink, fresh dry with dry caramel and smooth malt. Moderate bitter with nice Ale characteristics. Long aftertaste with hints of nuts. Nice!
