330ml can via Beer52: BBE Feb 2022. Drank at home on 2nd Apr 2021. Poured a clean and clear amber colour, white head that faded fast. I liked the uncomplicated feel of this bitter brew. No citrus notes or piney traces, just a good old fashioned beer offering a good blend of traditional aromas and flavours.

Bottle from KWM. Appearance - cloudy amber/brown. Big white head. Nose - butterscotch, unfortunately. Then a bit of grain bag going on! Taste - burnt toffee, hobnob, light metallic, generally cleaner than the nose. Palate - light to medium bodied, roasty middle and finish. Overall - the sum of the parts is better than the components, ok!
