It has a dry and lingering aftertaste, although this is a bland ale at best.

GBBF. Cask. Clear amber beer. Semi dry palate. Fruity but a little too much apple. Finishes semi dry with more apple. A bit young mayhap?

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol 3/11/09. Deep gold, slightly hazy with a slight white head. Aroma of tinned peaches and digestive biscuits. Flavour was sweet with some apricot jam, earthy hops and a short, bitter finish. A half pint was enough.

(Cask at GBBF, London Earl’s Court, 5 Aug 2009) Copper colour with brief, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with notes of nuts, apricots and grainy malt. Malty, slightly fruity taste with grain, dried fruit, apricots and a certain spicy, mild bitterness in the finish. Rather light body, balanced sweetness. Boring but drinkable.
