Bottled. Dark amber (or copper) coloured, with mediumsized white head. Hoppy and malty nose, nothing special... Flavour is fruitish hoppy with some malty hints. OK bitter, but expect nothing special.

[Cask at Archery Tavern, Paddington, London] A nut brown beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with notes of nuts - a quite faint aroma. The flavor is sweet nutty and fruity.

[At Archery Tavern, Paddington, London] A golden beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty, and so is the flavor, though with a slightly hoppy end. Drinkable, but I rather have an ale in London and a real HB in other places.
