It’s strength is evident in its taste and hides a lot of the flavour. The aroma is both hoppy and malty and it is mid-brown in colour with a thin head.

More a pale but with some wheat elements to the brew. This has a light texture but full of fruitiness more associated with summer special than winter for which it has been marketed for. Clear golden appearance with a small head. Slightly sour in the palate.

Cask at the Black Country Arms, Walsall. Poured a nice very dark brown with a reddish hue and a thin creamy tan head with loads of lace. The flavour is malty with lots of dry hopped fuggle spiciness. A super mild ale.
