Can from Fresh Fields Croydon. It pours cloudy orange with a medium white head. The aroma is rich, sweet, sticky, oily, apricot, persimmon, marmalade, Irn bru and piney action. The taste is slick, dry, oily, some bitterness, raw pine, resin, warming alcohol, apricot, nectarine, persimmon, pithy citrus and a touch of spice. Finish is drying and linger. Medium body and fine, massaging carbonation. Rich and oily. Pretty tasty stuff. Maybe a bit heavy, but it is enjoyable.
