Bottle from Northumbrian Gifts. New brewery for me. Clear ruby-brown colour with small off-white head. Bready malt aroma with caramel, fruit and spice. Lovely balance to the flavour with malt, nuts, chocolate, fruit, spice and a grassy bitterness. Medium bodied, fairly soft carbonation for the style. Very good.
