Bottle from Morrisons. Clear brown body with a thick beige head. Lively carbonation. Nice lacing. Aroma of nuts, copper and brown bread. Flavour of lightly roasted malt, caramel, herbal hints and elderflower. Thin body with a slightly oily texture. Soft fizz. A delicate, malty ale. Reminds me a little of Cairngorm’s Trade Winds.
