Our deep, ruby-red ale graces the senses with comforting splashes of warm hints. Inside, you’ll find a rich, chocolatey taste, tucked away with liquorice and treacle. All enveloped in a velvety blanket, for a smooth, unmistakable texture and finish.

Cask at GBBF '18, day 4, 10/08/18. Clear golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is straw, mellow citric peel, airy malts, lemon rind. Taste comprises bread dough, grassy, light citric peel, toasted grains. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. So so for the style ... more akin to a gold ... Goldings and Otter in an APA? Can't be arsed changing as there are plenty of beers in RB listed as golden blondes that really should be APA.
