Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours clear copper-gold with a creamy, off-white head. Medium sweet flavour with notes of lightly toasted pale malts, candied citrus peel, a little pine, nips of toffee. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with a touch of piney resin, more sun-kissed malts, some semi-ripe orange. Nice overall if a little basic, and not very bitter.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours black-brown with a tight, creamy beige head. Light-medium sweet flavour with sturdy, ashy roast, some burnt cinnamon, modest earthy bitterness, a little black coffee and baking cocoa. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly drying finish, further bittersweet ashy roast, scorched earth. Not bad.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours crystal clear yellow with a tight, creamy white head. Light sweet flavour with nice crispy biscuit character, fresh cereal, hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Pretty well balanced to finish, more pale grain, biscuity pale malts, pleasant dryness. Sound.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours mostly clear rich golden with a creamy, white topping. Light sweet flavour, white malty, some toasted crackers, a little butterscotch perhaps, subtle leafy hops. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet and malty finish. Drinkable but not very refined.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours clear yellow-gold with a resting, foamy white head. Light sweet flavour with some biscuity pale malts, minimal bitterness, suggestions of lemon rind. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Decent balance to finish of a bit basic, some pale biscuits, straw, white grape and citrus rind. Drinkable enough.

Keg at the brewpub. A murky, dirty pale yellow brew with a thin white head. A bit watery, mild sourness, a dirty dustiness and some light peach sweetness to finish. Not great, but drinkable I guess.

Keg at the brewpub. Apparently different to the Autumn Lager which was also on sale at an identical strength and which looked the same! Hazy amber coloured with an off-white head and a middling fizz. Malty with a grassy bitterness up front which is nicely balanced with a light caramel sweetness in the finish. Decent.
