Can, many thanks minutemat! Hazy orange color with creamy off-white head. Aroma is overripe grapefruit, earthy hops, toasted malts, caramel. Taste is caramel, bready, earthy, spicy hop sting and a bitter, slightly boozy finish. Sharp carbonation. Quite rustic, and very Old School indeed.

Cask pint in The Shrewsbury Hotel (Spoons) on 15th Dec 2016. Golden body, smooth white crown. Malty front, yet the taste is fairly bitter: mixed bag of over-ripe fruits in the flavour. Liked it.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours a misty amber, good white head. Aroma of caramel malt and brisk earthy hop. Taste is sturdy caramel with a sharp hop bitterness. It does seem that this is an IPA in the original sense, full of English hop character and a solid malt backbone. Very decent.
