Foamy off white head left a spotty cover on an unclear amber coloured body. Caramel, malt & toast aroma. Medium bodied, smooth over the tongue with a foamy cloying back. Malt, biscuit, berries & jam tastes with a tangy lightly hopped fruity finish. Solid.

Cask at The Colmore, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear medium amber colour with an everlasting frothy white head. The aroma is malt, light woody hops. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a smooth, rich, malty, nutty, jammy citrus, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

On cask at Coach and Horses Dronfield - Deep amber, lasting head. Big caramel hints in this, smooth body. Lots of good things in this one.
