Ruby red colour, off-white head. Surprisingly high rated. Caramel malty aroma and sweet flavours with a hint of toasted malts make it an average bitter.

Deep ruby red with a beige, creamy head. Malty, lightly toasted aroma. The malty flavor has a light sweetness to it with chocolate, earth tones, caramel malt, and a nice biscuit/bready dough note in the finish. Smooth body that went down real easy (a little to easy? I meant to have one, but finished the night with three). I really enjoyed this brew. It accomplishes what I like in an ale; tasty and easy drinking. (Bottle at The Globe, Hong Kong)
