Bottle at C&R Pre-GBBF Tasting 2017. It pours clear copper with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sugary, tangy, berry skin, stewed fruits, must, earth and marmalade. The taste is dry, firm bitterness, wood, leather, very earthy, toasty grain, cereal, nut and alcohol. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Some interesting aspects to it. Not bad.

The great pre GBBF bottleshare at ChrisO’s. Clear amber beer, good cream colour head. Palate is smooth and semi dry. Decent fine carbonation. Tired malts, some oxidised caramel. Dried fruits. Light ripe fruity finish. Doing nothing for me, quite dull.
