(Cask at Rake, Borough, 23 April 2016) Amber colour with dense, off-white head. Malty, slightly fruity nose with notes of caramel, apricots and toffee. Malty, slightly fruity taste with caramel, dried fruit, orange peel and a balanced earthy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain caramel sweetness. Fresh and tasty. Quite nice.
