Brewery draught, 10/26/25.
As pictured.
Chocolatey-caramelly. Some toast and mild ester. Clean.
Great acidity and bitterness from fermentation and lightly toasted malt. Nice to see some acidity from the yeast and a good deal of malt depth and flavor. Milk chocolate and mild bitterness lingering. Yeah, I mean, this is English, and it's a hell of a lot of flavor if it's actually 3.8%.

4 oz draft at the brewery. Deep brown color. Traditional English ale yeast and soft nutty flavors. Caramel. Actually quite bold for under 4%. Soft bitterness to balance. Pretty good.

5 oz. pour as part of a flight at the brewery. Lightly hazy maple syrup brown with ring of head, nice lacing. Aroma is subtle roasted malts (at best—virtually no aroma). Taste is strong toasted earthy malts, late toffee. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste with light lingering bitterness.
