Aroma is somewhat nutty with some caramel, English hops and toffee. Flavour has caramel malt, some toffee, nuts and grassy hops. Quite straightforward and boring.

50cl bottle, 4.5%. Clear, copper to red color, small creamy offwhite head. Nose of soft roasted malts. Aroma is soft on the dark malts and more prominent on the hoppy side. Bitterness has a major impact here, but not bitter as a pilsener or IPA, with a caramel sweetness. Dry finish. Sustained carbonation, light bodied, a dusty feel. OK Bitter.

Brown 500ml bottle, best before 25 Nov 2008, drank 09 Jan 2008, which was cold wet and windy dat in Shropshire. Poured into a pint sleeved glass. Good colour, a deep terracotta red/amber with a weak biege head that tried to stay, but failed. Some malt, hops and fruits of the forrest are in the aroma, but it isn’t a heavy smelling beer. The flavour is a well balanced mix of the basic ingrediance that should be in good strong bitter. A little weak in the mouthfeel, not really watery, but not a thick feel either. No a bad beer, one I would have again but not look for.
