Cask ale, half pint, shared with Finn at Commercial Rooms (JDW). Bright amber body, naked at the surface, lacing rings down the glass. Restrained smell of caramel malts. Taste of caramel mingled with dried fruits. On the sweet side of bittersweet ending. Smooth in the mouth and quite nice (Bristol 30.04.2017).
