Cask-GBBF. Black with no head. Apple and toffee aroma. The sweet malty, grainy flavour has a funny note of apple.

Bright, vibrant golden-amber colour. The aroma is caramelly, minerally with a light anglohoppy grassiness. On the palate it’s largely minerally (esp. chalky) with a light juicy maltiness and a firm hoppy finish. Quite dry. The lack of yeast, though, hampers would would otherwise be a fairly expressive example of English brewing. Then again, with the yeast it may not have survived to explore this coast...
