500ml bottle. Clear amber with minimal off-white head, disappearing rapidly. Aroma of sweet malt, caramel, toffee. Taste is the same, initially sweet with a mildly bitter finish. Actually quite well balanced, sessionable. Light-medium body, texture and carbonation. Easy drinking though nothing special.

(Cask at Kitty’s, 20160317) The beer poured deep amber and clear. Its head was small, white and it lasted long. Aroma had grass, earth and toffee. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were grass, honey, malts, toffee, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. A surprisingly sweet brew and therefore not my thing.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden amber with a nice lacy head. Nose - toffee, or is it butterscotch. No, toffee. Taste - toffee again. Palate - light to medium bodied with a tangy rich texture and a dry tangy finish. Overall - a bit one-dimensional for this style.
