Frothy light brown head on dark brown coloured body. Malt, oats & liquorice aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & silky with a cloying back. Liquorice, malt, burnt, roasted & cereal tastes with a bitter lightly hopped finish. Nice & nice to get a beer in a bottle for a change.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours amber with a slight haze and a smallish, off-white head. Very British hop aroma, caramel and almost buttery too. Medium body, sweet caramel and toffee paired with butterscotch. Faint bitterness. Very true to style, although I find the buttery side a bit overdone. 230922

Cask @ Golden Lion, Todmorden. Blonde with a head. Easy session brew, not thin for its low strength, has a healthy hoppiness about it too.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] A straw coloured pour with a thick cream coloured head; sweet grainy aroma; sweet grainy taste with some lemon; and a sharp zesty citrus bitterness to finish.

On cask at Cold Bath, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out bready malt and subdued floral hops. Flavour is somewhat metallic, with bittering floral hops and crisp biscuity malt. Crisp, nicely coppery and crisp. Good.

Bottle from Booths Supermarket, Media City. Deeper golden coloured with a head. Clearly low alcohol but its pale ale texture and taste is pretty strong and enjoyable.
