Cask at Craft Beer Co, Covent Garden on 17th January 2016. Clear coppery red with pale yellow-tinged, shallow, scantly lacing foam. Remote malt and fruitiness in aroma. Richly nutty in mouth with caramel malt and tart fruits. A lasting bitter finish. Smooth yet engaging texture, with fair amount of body.
