Appearance is amber, clear, carbonation, a thick white head which lasts throughout. Aroma- very malty, sweet dark fruits, caramel. Taste- malt-forward, hop bitterness, sugary fruit. A little creamy in the mouthfeel, bitter finish.

[Keg at ZeroDegrees Reading] Pours a deep copper-red with a good, lasting creamy head - looks good at least. Oddly sporadic carbonation - one moment you’re getting annoying mouth prickles, the next it’s smooth. Vague malt aroma. Rather watery. Slight initial taste of caramel and toasted malt before it’s over-run with a metallic bitterness. Fortunately the metals do die away leaving a lasting dry finish with overtones of crackly autumn leaves. I love this brewpub, I love their food, I love the chilled-out atmos, I love their bravery in trying out varied continental styles. I’d love to be able to rate their beers as highly as I do the place itself, but unfortunately this is yet another brew that falls well short of the mark.
