A strong amber ale. Rich toffee and roasted nut character derived from Munich malts. A generous amount of premium NZ hops are rocketed into each cask creating a complex yet balancing bitter sweet finish.

Bottle split at the pre GBBF Shindig '18, thanks, 04/08/18. Hazed golden amber with a decent egg shell white covering. Nose is earthy fruits, dusty, bitter orange, light fart. Taste comprises tangy fruit esters, spice, caramel, toasted grains. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, semi drying close. So very so.

Bottle at Chriso. It pours hazy amber with a medium foamy white head. The aroma is sweet, oily, doughy white bread, candy, biscuit and sponge cake. The taste is sweet, bitter, boiled sweets, jelly babies, biscuit, spicy and sponge cake with a dry finish. Medium body and high, foamy carbonation. Quite sweet and candyish.
