Bottle conditioned. A deep red beer with a thin tan head. The aroma has notes of caramel and malt as well as lighter notes of honey. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, nuts, and caramel, leading to a dry, bitter, and nutty finish.

Cask handpump at The Turf Tavern, Oxford, 17-04-10 Pours amber with a white head. This is a tasty tangy beer with a medium bitterness, some maltiness and a steak of sweet citrus throughout. Had this in the company of many Morris men and women, a wonderful though tiring day of dance. A6 A4 F7 P4 Ov13 3.4
