Small yellowish head, over paler chestnut beer with a light olive shine. Outspoken toffee nose, bit of parsley. Dry, soft-bitter taste, leafy & greenery. Very much like a top-fermenting interpretation of a German Dunkel. Pretty good, actually, growing on me. Finish has a hint of arachide. Light bodied, light slickness, pretty dry. Better than most bottled light British ales. From the brewery that I love, without ever having experienced it. VERY big thanks to Darren!

Picked this up at Belingers Jet garage, Grove near Wantage, Oxon, consumed at home 23-09-08 Pours amber in colour, this was quite nice if a little light. Some oakiness and vanilla where I’m getting that from I don’t know. Its quite simple, left it for half an hour walked off doing something else and it had really opened up even better when I returned. I like this, its tasty but not an exciter.

Bottled@Fonefan. Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is caramel, mild hops and sweet malts. Flavour is hops, fruits, mild notes of caramel and some grassyness. A quite pleasant sessionbitter.
