50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a diminished white head. Mild malty aroma with a whiff of spices and some fruity tones. Flavour is slight malty with a herbal note into a bit of spices. Ends slight spiced too. A bit boring without any refinement.

Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Black/very dark brown with thin dark beige head. Choccy/blackcurrant aroma, a little sour too. Bit of liquorice, bit watery in mouth, but very nice grainy choc on end. Not great condition cos getting towards end of barrel, but then again only 99p a pint. Some good choc on finish mind. Given better condition this would be excellent.
