Cask at MS HW, 24/11/17. Amber copper pour with a well presented egg shell white head that retains well. Nose is nutty, biscuit, earthy malts, orange peel, straw. Taste comprises caramel, dried fruit rinds, light candy bar, brown bread, toasted nuts, caramel crunch. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close dashed with mellow hop bitterness. Decent enough for the style.
