Flaska från SB. Klar mörkare guldig/knäckigt brun med smutsvit skumpuck. Maltigt, mjuk toffee-ton, nötigt och en lätt, lätt mineralton. Mjuk kropp, lagom låg beska. Gott och drickvänligt.

16/6/2022. Cask at the 30th East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours clear bright amber copper with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma is hoppy, malty, caramel, fruit, berries, biscuit, bread, flowers. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness, slight tart berry edge. Moderate body, oily, average carbonation. Nice bittersweet finish. Good.

Hand-pulled pint at The Signal Box Inn, Cleethorpes on 22nd April 2022. Poured into a plastic beaker, it still looked good; Amber body, clear and clean, on top an off-white blanket of foam. Malty front to the aroma with a floral ester or two. The taste an easy going blend of malts and bittering hops, lovely in the afternoon after an hours walk with Bertie and family.

Flaska från SB. Klar kopparfärgad vätska med medelhögt krämigt skum. Doft av knäckebröd, rostade nötter, karamell och löv. Fina maltiga smaker med mjöligt knäckebröd främst. Lätt höig beska. Gott
