Bottle. A gift from Totnes. Hazed medium amber colour. Thin and dense, creamy white head. Nose has biscuit malt. Touch of fruited tea loaf. Herby hop leaf. Taste has a light caramel sweetness, but is mostly peppery, and leafy bitter. Smooth and easy drinking. Fine carbonation. Some dryness. Light bitter finish. Nice one. Great nick, too.
