herlig lukt av tre. Gylden mørk nøttebrun farg med et fint lag av skum. God langt sittende smak, noe søtlig men godt.

Aroma is quite toasty and nutty. Flavour has roasted malts and has a certain creamy, nutty sweetness. Carbonation is a bit high and there’s a bit of a metallic aftertaste otherwise a decent brew.

Bottle from Gardiner & Haskins, Bristol. Chestnut with a frothy, off-white head. Sweetish, cereal malts, with a touch of cocoa powder and berry fruits, leading to a moderately bitter finish. Ok.
