A perfectly plump pint “brood” for a fuller flavour, the rich roasted malt character is balanced against both fruity and citrus hop notes. 4.6% on the bottle.

Cask@GBBF2007. Dark amber colour, slight dark orange colour, mediumsized white head. Lots of caramel, fudge along with some hints of wood and sweet fruits. The same goes for both aroma and flavour. Quite nice brew. Aftertaste leaves a nice touch of caramel and flowery hops.
