Bottle. Gold with a inch of white head but fades but doesn't disappear. Grainy aroma with orange peel, spices, some earthy notes. Grain and light bready sweetness is swept away by mild citrus and fairly strong spicy bitterness at the dryish end. Not bad.

It has a strong scent of orange peel that largely overwhelms grapefruit and breadcrumbs. That imbalance is also present on tasting and the problem is compounded by a thin palate. I love Prancing Pony, but this is not their best.

Keg from BrewDog Leicester. Reddish brown, cloudy with a large beige head. Intense malty aroma with suggestions of strawberry and vanilla bean. Sweet malt-led taste with more berry flavours. Finish is rescued by a balancing hop bitterness. It's pretty delicious all told, although slightly one-sided in the heaviness of the malt.
