Cask half-pint on 23rd Sep 2016 at the Shrewsbury CAMRA beer festival. Red hue to this brown/dark amber bodied beer, beige head. Malty molasses rule the aroma and flavours, caramel sweetness with a toffee apple like taste, some hedgerow fruits in the mix too. Liked it, my sweet tooth picking up the maltiness and smoothness of the brew.
