500ml bottle. Clear copper appearance, modest amount of off white froth atop. Gently sweet nose. Taste is noticeably sweet, a little sugary, some fruity caramel malt notes.. The lightest off flavour, not really oxidised but close to it. Not too off putting and the sweetness retains a strong appeal. Nice Welsh ale.
