21/5/2018. Bottle at the Kiln, Newcastle. Pours thick mid brown with a small creamy off-white head. Had been fridge stored and took a while to clear as a result. Aroma of caramel, malt, fruit, berries, nut and bread. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Medium body, thick texture, average to soft carbonation. Nice bitterness to finish. Much better when it had lost its coldness.

Hazy amber, pine and citrus aroma. Taste ismoibe, tropical fruit, hop. Dry, strong and quite for the style. It's nice.
