A well hopped, russet coloured beer, with strong floral hop notes, easily recognised in the aroma. Characteristically autumnal, and warming.

Cask, 4.5 % abv, 1/3 pint at Nobody's Inn. Clear amber body, film-type layer, upper part lacing on the glass. Earthy malts and ripe citrus nose. Pretty decent taste of ripe orange and dried fruits. Ends on the sweet side off bittersweet. Satisfying. (Grantham 13.11.2021).

Cask-conditioned at the Crosse Keys, London 06/10/09. Amber with a slight white head. Slightly strange mix of caramel and citrus fruit with a sharply bitter edge. Ok.
