Thin tan head left a frothy cover on a rich mahogany coloured still body. Liquorice, toffee & malt aroma. Medium bodied, smooth over the palate thinning out to leave a clean back. Malt, liquorice, toffee, biscuit & berry tastes with a sweet fruity finish leaving a tangy taste in mouth. Excellent Mild!

Dark ruby color with a fine tan head. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium light body and a soft carbonation level. A bit to sweet texture. Sherry-ish, fruity and toffee in the flavor.
