Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear light copper colour with a medium sized thick creamy white head. Aromas of caramel, bread, spice and a hint of citrus. Taste has caramel, citrus, toasty bread, more peppery spice and added notes of biscuits, floral and herbal. Decent earthy hops on the long finish. Medium body, low carbonation and smooth oily mouthfeel. Decent beer.

16/6/2022. Cask at the 30th East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours clear dark amber with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma is malty, hoppy, toffee, biscuit, golden syrup, stewed fruits. Mediums wetness, bitterness and body. Oily and sticky mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Some dryness to finish, tangy and bittersweet. Scored well compared to most other Marstons I’ve had.

Bottle. Pretty classic English IPA. Pours gold with white head. Floral, easy hoppy presence. Smooth carbonation. Quite okay drinking if no proper IPA is around.
