Clear copper colour with thin head. It's a fairly plain bitter. Slightly too gassy. A decent beer. Oatmeal usually adds body and texture. It seems wasted in a light, gassy Bitter.

Craft TCR bottleshare. Thanks to Wingman. Hazy amber brown beer, big pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Fluffy dark malts, little creamy sweetness. Tangy dark fruits. Thin tangy finish. Okay.

Bottle shared in London - cheers to Dave. Pours murky brown with a creamy tan head. Not the best, somewhat chalky, notes of toasted pine and flowers, lemon peels. Light bodied with lively, massaging carbonation. Floral hops in the finish, more toast. So so.

Cask @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Golden and hoppy with a creamy head. It's light and dryish in its tropical fruitiness, which has a sweetness to it. Has a mild graininess too.
