Clear deep amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and crisp. Great condition again on the US bar! Thin malts, slightly sweet and with a light toffee streak. Spicy orange hop, thin but pretty fresh-spicy. Trace of something sweet before light dry finish. Spicy linger. Tasty but a tad thin.

Sampled @ GBBF day 3. Clear dark orange to amber color, virtually no head. Smell and taste malts, leaves, overripe dark fruits, lightly sweet. Average body and carbonation. Ok beer, but nothing interesting imo. One of so many.

Cask gravity at the 2014 GBBF. Clear red amber colour with no head. Aroma is skunked hop, caramel and diacetyl. Flavour is stale caramel malts, mineral , English yeast. And lacklustre dill hop. Palate is medium light body with light carbonation. Terrible.
