Bottle. Brown with a medium beige head that soon receded to a film. The aroma is plums, wood, something herbal/spicy and a small whiff of alcohol. The taste has tart plums in the forefront with raisins, grape juice and some balsamic vinegar showing up a bit later. The palate was full and smooth. Finished long with lingering grapes. Overall: Decent, not as sour as I expected, and rather surprised to see this was classified by RB as a traditional ale. Enjoyable fer sure
