Had this at Oxford Beer Festival, Oxford, Thursday 17th October 2013 Pours mid brown a little murky. I got a bit of nuttiness and perhaps more particularly a bit of almond/marzipan just in the background. I believe that this is a German style, certainly seems to be heading that way. Fruity malts to the fore type of beer but there are enough hops to intrigue as well, nice stuff. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.5

[Cask from the brewer’s own stand at the Thame Food Festival] Amber-bronze with a thin white head. Beautiful smooth warm malts (as seem usual for this brewer) give you hot buttered toast & marmalade to the fore, followed by a sizeable whack of hops - pine, peach and passion fruit. Very, very drinkable. Great stuff again from XT. Nice one.
