Bottle. A clear, dark golden beer with a clear, off-white head of small size. The aroma has a nice resiny hops on a sweet, toffee-ish background with bready notes. Caramel, pleasant citrusy and resiny hops, fruityness and a nice bitterness in the mouth. Medium to full-bodied and a pleasant carbonation. Pleasant finish with bitterness and malty sweetness. A really pleasant and easy drinkable beer. (081206)

Pale looking ale with a tight, creamy head. No notable aroma, taste a little thin, hops evident and some fruit and bitterness but not really robust enough, although would make a pleasant session beer (wasn't on a session unfortunately!).
