A beautiful copper-coloured easy drinking bitter. Rounded fruit flavours with malty, hoppy and nutty undertones and a smooth dry finish. Perfect on its own or as a companion for roast dinners, pies and citrusy puds. 4.5% in bottles.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours a golden amber with a faiz-sized white head and good lacing. Malts to the fore in the aroma, plus some hints of nuts. In the mouth it has a distinct creamy texture and is slightly sweet overall. Flavours of toffee, honey and some dried fruit. Later summer fruits come through. Finish is slightly dry and fruity. This is decent. Would call it a bitter not a golden ale though.

Rocky off white head on a clear amber coloured body. Malt & tobacco aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & cloying on the back. Toffee, caramel, syrup & honey tastes with a lightly hopped sweet finish. Would like to try from cask.

Cask at the 4th Olds & Bolds Beer Festival, Footscray Rugby Club, Eltham, April 2018. Amber pour with a white head. Caramel, toffee, lots of malt in the aroma. Citrus, caramel and a splash of orchard fruit in the flavour. Not bad.

On cask at the Continental in Preston. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - light toffee and malt. Taste - more chewy malt and toffee. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - not very exciting but balanced and drinkable.
