On tap at Hops, Crewe. Nose has general maltiness with hints of herbs. Pours a slightly hazy red brown with a beige head. Mouthfeel is a heady combination of bready, creamy peppety malts, with chestnuts to the fore. General nuttiness in the finish. Would happily drink this one again.

Keg @ Bailey Head. Pours black with patchy beige foam atop. Aroma brings roast with light maple sweetness. Medium bodied, soft roast, teasing maple alongside a chocolate undercurrent, pecans just creeping in on the finish. Could be sweeter but on the whole it's well presented and a nice introduction to this brewery.
