Brown ale with pale beige, creamy head and deep, warm chestnut brown colour. Dried fruits and caramel malts, bit metallic, finishing very lightly toasted. Nice session beer, as an old-fashioned English brown ale should be.

On cask in Stocksbridge PS FC club house - A rich clear deep red body, lacing white head. Nose is caramel and malts, with a robust cake fruit smell to it. Taste is well rounded with toffee, caramel and forest fruits at the end. A nice surprise in a football ground!

Cask @ JDW The Rawson Spring, Hillsborough [200314] [From memory as notes lost] Caramel brown, white head. Aroma of soft caramel and sweet toffee. Taste same as aroma, some nice soft sweet toffee in here and a bit nutty as I recall. Palate was thin to medium, was a bit creamy. Finish of smooth soft toffee. Was OK and finished the half.
