27/9/2022. 500ml bottle from CentrAle, Newcastle. Pours hazy dark orange amber with a fluffy white head. Aroma is spicy, orange, green apple, flowers, biscuit, caramel, malt, spruce. Light sweetness and quite heavy bitterness. Medium body. Quite lively carbonation, but otherwise good.

Bottle at home – originally gift from nephew Has an aroma of fruity, floral hops. Pours a golden yellow with a vigorous cream head, that lasts a good while. Lops of hoppy bitterness in the mouth (no lemon or grapefruit nonsense here !), some caramel and malts as well. A nice dry bitter finish. This is very good.
