500ml from Noz. Looks handsome in the glass with a good creamy beige head. Very very nice indeed, much more coffee and chocolate notes than expected with a creamy smooth mocha character. Lovely

With Storm Amy outside giving the day a wetting, my first wetting of the day doesn't feel very like a summer ale, although I am still wearing shorts! Its low alcohol impacts negatively on its hops, they're very bland tasting with minimum citrus notes available. It does feel weak textured too. Clear golden coloured.
