500ml bottle bought at Greene King Beer Cafe. Shared with Finn. Bright amber body, fair lacing from a diminishing white head. Modest doughy malty nose, mid-sweet. Honeyed malts to the taste buds, hints of dried fruits. Rather sweet malt-fruity ending. Soft on the swallow. Easy going.(Hotel room, Cambridge 12.11.2021).

Delt med Rune på rom 230 på Travelodge Cambridge Central. Gyldenbrun. Filmskum med litt farge. Litt lacing. Smørmaltaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken som aromaen. Kjedelig. Tørr bitter avslutning.

Cask at Old Tom, Oxford on 27th April 2018. Copper with off-white foam and scant lacing. Sweet caramel malt aroma. Fruity and malty in-mouth. A finish of toffee and berry fruits. Light mouthfeel and body.
