330ml Can - Deep amber with a haze and a fairly foamy head. Orange, caramel, marmalade and some slightly herbal notes in the aroma. Zesty orange, caramel, wood and a subtle yet pleasant sweetness in the taste.

A copper colour, a head is medium and beige. Aroma has caramel maltyness, flowers, fruitness, light wood. Taste has pretty much the same elements than in the aroma, caramel, flowers, fruitness turns to strongly riped, dry wood. Medium bodied. Nice beer.

Smell of malt, some earth and grass. Cloudy amber colour, off-white head. Aroma of overripe fruit, earth, sweet malt. Very faint grassy undertone. A clear ESB, but with some Belgian and pils notes. Soft plentiful carbon. Very pleasant.
