Had to meet my parents for this deeper clear amber coloured ale to give them their Grand National Xmas present tickets. I paid more attention to them than the brew but it was a solid enough pint within the style. Lighty sweet, very mild bitterness.

Third of a pint at the Crown (the Spoons in Berkhamsted) on 15th March 2026. Red hue to the body, beige roof. Malty and semi sweet with a decent hop kick, dark berries also in the mix flavour wise.

Color ámbar rojizo, translúcida, espuma blanco hueso, cremosa y muy persistente bonito aspecto. Aroma y sabor muy maltoso con notas de caramelo, hoja seca, galleta, y algún recuerdo de frutos rojos en el retrogusto. En general una cerveza bastante rica y de un beber muy agradable.

Bonito color marrón cobrizo translúcida. Espuma poco abundante blanquecina que deja película. Aroma acaramelado, con notas ligeramente florales. En boca gas punzante, ligera y agradable sabor bien acaramelado, con notas de galleta y ligero punto ácido ahora más frutal que herbal.

Bottle from Beautiful Beers, Bury St Edmunds. Dark amber. Slightly opaque. Foamy off-white head soon recedes. Aroma has grains, malts. Some spice. Flavourwise is then unexpectedly sour - berries and rye. Develops hints of sweetness, moreso into the finish. Caramel and fruit. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Enjoyable and easy drinking.
