A bold, balanced Amber Ale. The carefully layered malt bill showcases a host of aromas and flavours spanning light, sweet biscuit through to dark roasted caramel. Vibrant hops from America and New Zealand introduce a gently bitter edge of resinous pine and citrus pith, topped off with subtly spiced florality.

Creamy white head stayed on a hazy, still, dark amber body. Malt aroma with hints of pine. Thin on the palate, sharp & clean. Very mild flavours of pine, outdoors, malt, citrus & a general bitterness on the back. Not much to say about this but it’s very solid.

Keg at The Hanging Bat, and cask at The Stockbridge Tap (six years later). Hazy amber body with a thin white head. Good lacing. Aroma of orange, earth and honey. Flavour of orange pith, wood and sparkling water. Medium body with a smooth, slightly oily mouthfeel. Soft carbonation. Good flavour for the strength. Better on cask than keg.

5.9% version. At the Royal navy volunteer. Hazy reddy orange coloured pour with with a sticky white head. Some good lace. Aroma is earthy malt, little lemon citrus, pine needle. Flavour is composed of nutty bready malts, pine and tart lemon, crisp. Palate is highly carbonated, spritzy, crisp, little strawberry. Pretty good. .
