17th April 2008 Pale amber in colour - malty nose and a malty taste but with enough of fruity zing to keep it interesting. Easy going beer.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] A hazy opaque brown beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of sulphur and roasted malt. The flavor is nicely roasted, with a dry roasted end, but the body is thin.
