Bottle thanks muchly to my SisInLaw who has an uncanny knack of finding beers I've not had. Cheers! Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy and mildly dry palate, good fine carbonation. Softish malts, light cream and a little caramel. Very mild floral bitterness and slightly ripe citrus before a fairly dry crisp finish. Lacks a little hop bite but a clean and drinkable bitter.

Bottle at home on 12th December 2022, received as gift. Pours clear coppery amber with shallow but lasting off-white foam and scant lacing. Malty aroma with touches of tangy orange. Sweet and nutty malts with tangy fruits in-mouth with just the hint of apple. Malty finish with berry fruits. Smooth mouthfeel and quite a bit of body.

Bottle a Christmas present. Rich dark berry aroma with a malty base. Cloudy dark brown. Thick foamy beige head. Initial light-medium bitter before a sour streak sweeps in. Malty finish. Light bodied. Thin. Average carbonation. Low key astringent finish. Fruity raw bitter. It's decent enough but doesn't quite seem to be the finished article.
