Sticky patches of lacing on the glass. Malt, fruit and hops in the nose. Medium-bodied with flavors of citrusy hops, caramel malt and a subtle spicy rye. The finish is moderately bitter with a spicy hops aftertaste. Above average overall.

From cask. Pours hazy amber with a small off white head. Aroma is roasted malty and light fruity. Sweet, toasted and caramelish. Breadish and toffee. Bitter and dry hoppy into a smooth roasted malty finish.
