This pale poured a nice deep amber colour with a big, creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include caramel, little must and minimal hops. First swig was smooth and a lot more malt rich than expected. Flavours of caramel, medium hops, light toast and minimal hay. Finish is mildly hoppy with malty light bitterness lingering.

This cream ale poured a medium orange colour with a nice, creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include caramel malt, honey, very light perm solution (hops) and a little must. First swig was a bit sweet, with nicely levelled hop flavour. Other flavours of corn, honey and medium hops. Finish is lightly bitter with that sweet corny taste lingering. Very nice and not overhopped.
