From old notes. Visited the brewpub in the Summer of 2000. Cask. Reminded me a lot of Flemish brown ales of around 5% like Pater Lieven. Soft and sessionable.

Dark brown/amber color with an off white head. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a soft carbonation level. Decent balance between sweetness and bitterness. Dark malt, roast, toffee and some fruity notes. Decent ale.

Cask ale, shared with friends at Coach & Horses in Norwich. Rosewood coloured body. Filmy layer, dotted spots on the glass. Aroma of dark malts, toffee and dough to the fore. Taste profile of dark dough, brown malts and a touch of apricot. Mid-sweet malty-fruity ending. Medium bodied. Likable (18.02.2017).
