Bottle in Croydonia big thanks to Wingmane. It pours cloudy deep brown with a tiny, bubbly light tan head. The aroma is sweet, medicinal, boiled sweet, sugared plums, dried fruits and candy. The taste is smooth, roasted malt, bitter - sweet, slightly ashy, dried fruits, touch of jam, plum, medicinal, rather spicy, pepper with a dry, toasty finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A bit earthy and dirty, but overall ok.

Draft at Craft 100 Spring 2016 - Craft Beer Co. Clapham, London. Pours mostly clear gold with a light, white foam head. The nose holds grainy pale malts and a little hay. Light sweet flavour with touches of lemon, rind, more pale grains. Light bodied with fine carbonation; good condition. Nicely balanced on the finish, with notes of biscuits and lemon peel. Pretty alright stuff.
