Hand-pulled pint in The Angel on the Bridge, Henley on Thames; 3rd December 2024. Chestnut colour, off-white crown. Nutty, spiced and wintery somehow. Earthy and slightly on the sweet side, certainly more malty than hoppy, overall a decent winter warmer.

Have you had a half-decent golden ale? Cool, so you know what this is. Looks like a beer should with a good thick head, smells a bit malty, flavour has a bit of the same and some hops and maybe a dash of citric fruit. No more, no less. No nasties, but a thoroughly generic beer.
