Light hoppy aroma. Flavour has a bit of citrus hop and a slightly sickly aftertaste. It’s a bog standard bitter really. Drinkable but nowt special.

Cask half-pint in Oakham, Rutland on 15th March 2016. Deep amber body with a weak off-white head. The nose had a caramel lead with a floral hop hint, taste wise it was also sweet caramel with a hop content that tried to calm down the sweetness. Decent brew, suited my sweet tooth.

Cask, on gravity, at Tewkesbury Winter Beer Festival, 5/2/2016. Deep gold in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Sweet, caramel notes throughout, with a hint of leafy hop, biscuity malts and a moderately bitter finish. So so.
