Bottle from Bradwell Village Shop. Appearance - red, orange, brown. A thin head. Nose - treacle, tobacco, cereal. Taste - more cereal and chewy treacle. Palate - close to medium bodied with a crunchy texture and a long and fairly gnarly finish but it kept me coming back for more. Overall - more like an English Strong Ale in style.
