Bottle shared in CW - picked up in London. Opens with a slight hiss. Pours clear copper with a slight, bubbly off-white head. Light to medium sweet flavour, notes of toasted malts, dry caramel, meat, decent oxidation. Medium bodied with delicate carbonation. Moderately sweet finish, some crunchy toasted grains, earth, toasted caramel. Not bad overall.
