Bottle from Wine Rack, Leeds. Clear copper-amber with next to no head. Has a fruity aroma and taste with some marzipan involved in the former. There’s a sugary malty-sweetness in the latter.

Leeds Beer Festival 2016. Amber-gold. Lots of sweet toffee, much like candy at a fairground. Was also voted as the ’Mild of the Festival’.

Leeds Beer Festival 2016. Clear copper coloured ale. Has a stated fruitiness with toffee flavours dominating these in its taste, which linger long in its aftertaste, although there’s a bitterness here.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol March 2016. Deep copper in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Aroma of sweetish malts and a touch of berry fruit, with a whiff of leafy hop. Flavour had sweetish, bready, malts, some more fruit and a gentle finish. A bit underpowered.

Cask @ Beckett’s Bank, Leeds. Has a sticky-sweet character, and is somewhere between marzipan and toffee in its aroma, perhaps edging closer to the former in taste.

On cask @ the Standing Order. Appearance - amber with a nice head. Nose - toffee, light biscuit. Maybe a hint of chocolate. Taste - yes, toffee and light biscuits confirmed. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy yet crunchy texture and a finish that could be less sweet, if I’m being honest. Overall - tasty enough, but could finish better.
