As Hurns Old Style Bitter. A hazy dark orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet with a grassy hop note as well as notes of fruit, and light notes of diacethyl. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel as well as some fruit, leading to a dry bitter end, that also has hints of metal.
