Cask (handpump) @ Wellington, 1 Henry St, Shalesmoor, Sheffield, South Yorkshire England S3 7EQ.Clear medium amber color with a average, frothy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, coffee, oak - tobacco. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. Aroma makes you thin dark beer but this is just pale and a bit borring. [20090417]

[Cask at GBBF 2004] An amber beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel, while the flavor also is sweet caramel with a dry bitter end.
