Bottle sourced from Good Taste Food and Drink, Crystal Palace, London shared with the Fam/Steatham (29/08/2016) - dark cloudy amber brown pour with off-white head. Sweet malty with notes of caramel, brown sugar, light earthy, some subdued dark fruit nuances, not bad but not sure what it is, slightly plain and not doing much for me.
