Optisch Kupfer, in der Nase Karamell aber recht künstlich. Im Trunk Karamell, bitter, etwas plädderich, spät eigentlich nur noch bitter. Aber ist ja ich ein Bitter. Zum Essen okay.

Never very exciting, but when looked after it's a solid old school bitter - dark amber, near brown in colour, with a frothy white head and a semi-floral grainy malt aroma. Smooth and light bodied, it's sweetish fruit malt with subtle floral bitterness in the finish.

Bottle. Clear amber body with no head or lacing. Steady carbonation. Aroma of aniseed and tea. Flavour of earth and rust. Thin body with a watery texture. Soft fizz. Flat and dull.

Cask @ The Abbey. Clear golden amber appearance, creamy white collar atop. Aroma of pale malt. Simplistic taste profile, fitting in line with a run of the mill, thin-bodied, easy-drinking 3.8% Banks's bitter mould, gentle bitterness.
