Brewed using a single malt, the Theakston dual strain yeast and a blend of four varieties of hops. Its trademarked delivery system - poured at 10°C/50°F - is cooler than normal.

Slight hoparoma. Sweetish flavor with honey and apple. Honeyish with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not too bad.

Bottled version. Deep amber. The low carbonation gives a pleasant, soft mouthfeel. Malty and dry, but also slightly papery. Medium bitterness.

Apparently an effort from Theakston to attract cool people through cool ale. They can do better than that.

Light, very ironish tasting; limited character otherwise. Interestingly, I had this in a bottle, which doesn't seem like much of a cask to me.
