Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Cloin. Very hazy amber beer, good yellowish - cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Soft creamy malts. Toffee - caramel. Mild spice. Decent floral accented dried fruits. Mild bitterness on the soft finish. Not bad at all, just lacking a little depth.

Bottle split at L42, from Cotts IIRC, 26/07/17. Light haze with a decent off white cap that retains well. Nose is sweet malts, caramel, toasted brown sugar, booze fumes,sticky toffee. Taste comprises toffee, light spice, biscuit, fruit cake. Medium bodied, lively fine massaging carbonation aiding the drinkability, semi drying close with a light boost. Decent enough easy drinking BW, masks the ABV well, if lacking a little depth.

Bottle at L42. It pours hazy - cloudy brown with a massive off-white head. The aroma is earthy, juicy, toffee, wood, dried fruits, fruit cake, spicy, leather and candy. The taste is pretty sweet, toffee, cinnamon bun, candy, dried fruits, tangy, wood, residual sugars, earthy and toasty brown sugars with a drying and woody finish. Medium body and high, foamy carbonation. A bit chewy and sweet. Not bad.
