Amber pour, next to no head.
Very very subtle hop aroma, but its there......nice biscuity maltiness.
Flavor is a good amount of grainy, bready malt, with some nice hops in the finish. Incredibly easy drinking, an outstanding session ale, and a great rounded beer for the style.

Bottle from Waitrose. Pours a hazy amber colour with a large thick throthy off-white head. Aromas of floral hops with light notes of citrus orange and caramel. Taste is again floral, with citrus orange, marmalade, caramel and just a touch of peppery spice. Beautifully balanced. Perfect amount of bitterness on the finish. Excellent beer and my favourite from Fullers along with the 1845.
