500ml bottle: BB 1st Apr 2021. Drank at home on 19th Aug 2020. Clean and clear golden body, neat white crown. Decent enough blend of malts and bittering hops, not going to be too exciting at 3.5% ABV but pleasant enough.

Bottle from the Northumberland Beer Box. Aroma is down low. Coffee and molasses. Opaque cola brown. Bubbly beige head soon pretty much fades away. Light bitter with a tanginess to it and hints of sweetness. Coffee, liqourice, burnt caramel. Light-medium bodied. Watery. Fizzy carbonation. Dry slightly astringent finish. Wasn't too sure what to expect but decent stuff. Not the overly sweet beer I had feared it would be.
