Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours amber with a thin white head. Aromas of sulphur, toffee. Taste is thin, prickly carbonation, dirty honey finish. Not a fan.

5/5/2018. Bottle from the 8 Sail Brewery Shop. Pours golden amber with a big lasting off-white head. Aroma of malt, hop, citrus, caramel and grass. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness, with a hint of sour. Light body, slight oily and watery texture, quite fizzy carbonation. Sweet, grainy finish. Not one of the brewers best.

500ml bottle conditioned, into an Abbot Ale glass tankard at home on 11th Feb 2018. Amber bodied, slight haze, full white crown. Decent blend, hop bitter with a light malty base. Bit too 'home brew' for me though.
