50cl bottle from Ambleside Wines. Appearance - amber with a decent head though it disappears quite quickly. Nose - toffee and the merest hint of biscuit. Taste - again promising biscuit but really toffee is the main note. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture but I wanted more bitterness on the finish. Overall - decent but needs a cleaner finish.

On cask, gravity at Banbury Beer Festival, 07.05.11 Pours mid amber with some big white bubbles, there is a slight haze to this beer. Lightly malty, touch of sweetness some honey and biscuit on the nose, not an awful lot to describe in the mouth but pleasant nonetheless. A7 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.3
