Smooth balanced traditional amber deep copper colour. The sweetness of malt lends to biscuit & floral tones on the nose, giving way to the gentle but full bitterness of the hops and a sweet toffee finish.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2014 - London. Pours clear amber with a creamy white head. Dry and leathery berries pervade this one, with other notes of leafy and earthy bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation; decent condition. OK balance to finish, some dirty leaves, leather. OK overall.
