Bottle shared at Colin’s. It pours hazy deep ruby with a small beige head. The aroma is rich, very bready, fruit cake, stewed fruits and earthy action. The taste is dry, bitter, chewy malt, booze, peppery spices, leather, resin, alcohol heat with a dry, boosty finish. Full body and fine, prickly carbonation. A bit rough. Fair.

Keg at The Turks Head, Leeds, Saturday 5th November 2016 Clear gold with a sticky white head, quite a zappy fruity bite, maltiness shows but bitter and a touch boozy. Loz gets pear drops on the nose, when Loz gets pear drops I usually get bile and I do here but I don’t dislike it, it’s unusual. Good beer. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Keg at The Turks Head, Leeds, Saturday 5th November 2016 Mid gold with a slim white head, there is a little harsh bitter bite, a little pithy rub. Almost a concentrated citrus flavour with this. Good. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

The Maltings, York. Keg. Light haze on this amber beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and crisp. Sweetish malts. Spicy esters - quite strong, spicy bitter bubblegum. Little orange peel and bitter floralness. Light dry finish. Bitter floral linger. Found this quite awkward and much too estery
