Bottle from Drunk Dry, Kidlington, Oxon, Sunday 5th February 2017 whilst cooking at Ragu and making hone made pasta. Hazy, murky conker brown in colour with a slim white head, this is a very good representation of the style, fruity, with a flavour that very closely mirrors that of the brewers description above. Tangy with good banana and clove flavours coming through, it is a really good beer, not showy nor flashy, just solid, have enjoyed everything that Church Ham have done so far. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.3
