Red brown colour. Sweet, roasted malt aroma. Initial flavour of roasted, slightly smokey malts. The finish is somewhat dry and bitter as the hops come through.

Clear coppery brown with beige head. Light aroma: somewhat malty and hoppy. Medium body, light carbonation. Flavour is subtle with malty caramelly sweetness, some hops and some tangy fruitiness and a small amount og bitterness in the finish. Overall, itโ€™s good, but not special.

Bottle, 4.8% at Kร˜09. Weak nutty aroma. Clear dark amber colour. Small frothy white head. The flavour is nicely malty, good grassy hoppiness, but mild. There seems to be a hint of plastic, but nothing that ruins the beer.

[Cask at The Castle, Castleton] Amber-brown with moderate off-white head. Fruity, dusty bitterness, but a watery mouthfeel. Pretty forgettable.

Pours deep amber into an English pint. Bright white micro head with excellent retention leaves spotted sheets as it recedes to coat surface. Sour malt aromas. Smooth and malty upfront with a lasting mild hop finish.
