500ml bottle from Sainsburys. Amber with a ring of off-white head; rather stale, malty aroma with trace of honey; some honey flavour too, giving a smooth texture; some underlying bitterness, but rather bland overall.

Hazy amber colour. Very strong honey aroma. Sweet honeyed flavour is well balanced against some citrusyhop and a dry, bitter finish.

[i] Cask at The Crown, Charlton-On-Otmoor, Oxon, 29-07-07 [/i] Poured dark golden colour with small white head. Tasted nicely bitter, some honey sweetness, bitterness lingers for a while, nice beer but not a lot else to say about it.
