Can at home from M&S in St Evenage. Just come from PC world with middle daughter where we agreed on her laptop for 6th form. With the amount I spent this was needed to take the edge off. And I bought them mini Colins. Anyway, as ever I digress. Two of my favourite breweries meant this was a must have. Good pour with a great head, but it disappeared quickly. Great immediate nose of rich malt. The taste and mouthfeel are all great, especially for a low abv. It's surprisingly rich and I couldn't do many of these, but it is good.
