Aromas of orange and cinnamon balance out warm malts. The palate is a mixture of malt, spice with a sweet berry aftertaste.

33cl bottle from Longacres Garden Centre, Bagshot. ola coloured with a ring of white head; some winter spice on the aroma but not too strong; rather watery with cinnamon and cloves dominating and leaving a very dry aftertaste; otherwise there's a malty body and a touch of orange. Spiced winter beers are not a favorite of mine, but this is a reasonable approximation, albeit rather thin.
