Off white fluffy head stayed on a hazy reddish orange still body. Over stewed fruit, malt, spice, hops & brown sugar aroma. Medium to full bodied, smooth over the tongue & tingly over the back. Well balanced tastes of malt, stewed fruit, grape, citrus, wine & plum.

Bottle shred in Hackney - thanks to Sr. Fr0g. Pours clear orange-gold with a thick, foamy off-white head. The aroma holds vague piney spice, some fruitcake, a little butterscotch. Medium to big sweet flavour, with aggressive alcohol notes, some toasted pine, more butters pitch, ample hosted wood. Full bodied, litly oily and chew, with fine carbonation. Finishes with more boozy warmth, more toasted wood, vanilla, alcohol, dried berries, toasted caramel. Just alright overall. Pretty punchy.
