Delicious, fruity brown ale with a surprisingly full-body given the low abv. The fantastic aromas and hint of maltloaf come not just from the hops but from the complex blend of under-loved malts including the stunning Dark Munich.

Amber-brown. Bubbly head. Toasty, with a hearty breadcrust character. Bready malts with a subtle, fruity hop balance. Interesting beer, somewhere between a bitter and a brown ale.

Hazy, dark caramel coloured beer with a creamy off-white head. Nutty hop aroma. Flavour is nut and toasted malt. Has a light though ever so slightly watery finish.
