The Rake. Light haze on this amber beer. residual white head. Palate is fresh and light. Semi dry with very fine carbonation. Smooth malt, touch of cream. A little spice - like rye malt or something. Juicy marmalade hops, semi sweet. Bitterish pine and a whisper of red berry fruits. Dry crisp finish. Decent bitter linger. Good stuff!

Keg at The Lyric, Soho. It pours hazy amber with a small beige head. The nose is wood, varnish, toasted brown bread, toffee and earth. The taste is wood, earth, good level of bitterness, light resin, varnish, spice, caramel and some zesty citrus with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty tasty all-round. Good stuff.
