Wetherspoon 2025 Autumn Beer Festival. Ale#1 of 26 untried possibilities at the fest. Golden with a small haze, but a bigger head. The spirit is strong in both aroma and taste, providing a decent sweetish flavour within quite a heavy-drinking texture.

Poured from 500mL bottle at my 39th bday. Auburn brown with small off white head. Has a touch of that I&G character, but with a touch more woodiness. Light caramel malt, like it better as it warms a bit. Typical I&G fare, okay. Courtesy of RennyDoig.

500mL bottle. Pours clear brown with a white head. Gentle brown bread malts and some brown sugar on the nose. Flavour has thin bready malts and some dry smokey wood. It's okay, but pretty timid.

A soft and sweet malt nose. The taste is honey oak and vanilla. There is almost no hop presence and the malt is also sweet, adding to the one-sidedness of the taste profile. A touch insipid for my taste in beer.
