On tap at Bomber. Pours a clear deep gold with a white head. Faint citrus and yuzu on the nose. Flavour has faint pine, citrus, and a bready malt base. It's okay, could benefit from more hops.

On tap at Bomber, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has English bready malt, diacetyl, and a touch of toffee. Flavour definitely has that diacetyl that you sometimes find in English cask bitters—somehow it’s not a total dealbreaker—with English bready malt, some hoppy bitterness, and dry toasted notes. Not bad.

On a flight at the brewpub on 12th August 2025. Mahogany coloured body, beige crown. Mild malty front with an earthy/nutty leaning, light hop content, but enough to stop the beer being sweet or sticky in nature. Nice Brown Ale all round.

On a flight at the brewpub on 12th August 2025. Clean and clear amber body, off-white crown. Hoppy little thing with loads going on both up front and in the background. Really enjoyed it's bitterness.

On a flight at the brewpub on 12th August 2025. Teak red body, clean and clear, off-white crown. Nice looking malty brew with a decent hop bitterness and without any citrus fruits being harmed during the brewing is always a good thing.

On a flight at the brewpub on 12th August 2025. Golden amber body, clean and almost clear; white bubbles on top. Nice blend of bittering hops and semi-sweet malts, liked the fact it wasn't too citrussy!
