An antidote to Christmas.
No strange spices, just a really good stronger beer with a crisp fruity hop flavour and plenty of malt.
A refreshing beer to clear the palate.

Cask at the Euston Tap. Pours clear amber with medium, white head. Great earth and light pine hop aroma with some citrus and malts. Sweet, toasty malts in the flavor, with nice, earth and mild citrus bitterness. Medium in body with average carbonation. The balance of this beer is a highlight. Finishes great with a clean bitterness, further mild sweetness and some lingering earthen hops. Excellent beer.

Bottle from Oddbins. Amber colour, creamy off-white head. Aroma is malty, fruity, little wood polish and caramel. Flavour is caramel malts, fruity, some spices. Full bodied and a nice hop punch. Fairly bitter and slightly dry finish. Good stuff.
Rerate: cask @ The State. Full bodied and hoppy. + .3
