Bottle - Perfumy fruit esters. Cloudy orange with a little head. Fruity esters and a misplaced bitterness, this is not that great.

First bad beer I have had from this brewer. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark copper color with a medium sized foamy orange-tan head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was yeasty, chalky and a bit vegetal with a tangy bready presence. The flavor was bitter, tangy and off with a vegetal malt presence and notes of chalk and Pez.. Medium length tangy and off vegetal finish. Moderately full bodied. Bad.

Bottle from the Great British Beer Festival 2013. Poured a thick black colour with a dense tan head and some lacing. Aroma of chocolate, blackjack sweets and aniseed. Very aggressive carbonation. Initial flavours of treacle, burnt malt and some spice. Good balance of sweetness on the palate with some burnt sugar, plums and oak.

Bottle at GBBF 2013 - London. Many thanks to Fergus for the share! Pours clear gold with a foamy white head. The nose has some yeasty bread, light ripe fruits and apple. Medium sweet flavour with dry apple, applesauce, light dough. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish with more applesauce, modest bready malts and some touches of baked beans. Very so so and a little bit weird.

Bottle bought at GBBF 2013 and drunk at home. Dark brown colour with a small tan coloured head. Mild chocolate and caramel aroma, with some slightly sour dark fruit. Quite high in carbonation. A little light in body, and somewhat disappointing really.
