Pours deep clear amber into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes to sicken surface. Dark caramel and brown bread aromas. Crisp with hot caramel, light pit fruit, and raisin bread upfront turning to mild smoke and citrus peel in the earthy finish. Better than the sum of its parts.

Can shared in High Wycombe - cheers to Fergus. Pours mostly clear gold with a bubbly, white head. Light to medium sweet flavour with lovely biscuity character, some dry cereal, a little bitter straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Biscuits and bready malts in the finish, soft bitterness, a little dough. Drinks good.
