Nut brown, not much head. Sweet corn aroma. Sweet and very mellow with offputting vegeatble flavour. Strange, dusty velvetty finish.

Pours light brown with a thin head. Slighty bitter with a sweet hops aftertaste. Reminded me of Newcastle brown ale. Would probably be better if bottle wasn't clear.
