All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di orzo tostato. L'olfatto viene sollecitato in maniera normale e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma non è molto persistente. Le bollicine sono grandi. Il liquido è di consistenza trasparente. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono la forma della frizzantezza. Il colore è ambrato rossiccio carico tendente marrone. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è contenuto. L'intensità gustativa è normale, con continuità sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali che permangono sfociano in un finale di facile beva. In bocca l'aroma porta note di caramello, miele, crosta di pane, nocciole tostate, frutta secca e agrumi.

Cask at Spotted Dog, Darlington. 4.8%. Ruby amber colour, creamy off-white foam head leaving lacing and malty aroma. Taste is bready malt, some biscuit, berry fruity with nutty earthy bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi-dry finish. Quite OK.

Cask at Sun Inn. Pours a clear amber with a near white heas that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has sweet grains and bread with a touch of sweetness supporting. Flavor has biscuit and sweet grains with a decent amount of bread backing.

Bottle from Booths, Kirkby Lonsdale. Appearance - deep amber to red with a thin head that disappears quickly. Nose - sweet cherry lozenge. Taste - biscuits and cherry. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a finish that could be fresher. Overall - a bit too sweet overall.
