Bottled. Deep amber colour, small slightly off-whie head. Aroma is caramel, biscuits, mild floral, herbal and earthy tones. Flavour is caramel, herbs, earth and some mild floral, wooden and biscuity tones. Easy going, but still rather tasty.

Bottle, from historic notes. Source not recorded. Poured amber with an off-white head. Aroma of malt, hops, caramel and fruit with a touch of veg. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, watery texture. Wasn't great.

Bottle at YHA Grasmere. Dull amber with moderate cream hesd and a light fizz. Bland caramel throughout. Boring and too sweet. Mild grassy bitterness fails to redeem. This is a bit crappy.
