Cask at the Southampton Arms on Christmas Eve 2010. Copper with a thin whitish head of foam. Sweetish aroma, malty and a little pungent. Grassy, herby hops in-mouth, rounded by biscuit malt and some berry fruits. Bitter sweet aftertaste, with an accumulating bitterness. Light mouthfeel. Not had Manx beer before. Nice little treat for Christmas.

Light copper with nice lacing. Brown sugar and butter - dessert beer I guess. The diacetyl might be too big on the tongue (especially that slimy palate) but Bushy’s seems to often have this problem. OK, for a caramel malt bitter.
