Handpull cask at the Needle and Pin, Loughborough. Golden brown with a big and slightly loose off-white head. Buttered toast, nuts and sweet malt in the aroma. Hoppy bitter taste overriding the sweetness of the malt. Long finish with sharp woody hop in foreground. A bit green but well-balanced and very tasty.

Cheers Chris (Mr Pink) for this 500ml bottle that you brought to the Cotteridge gathering on 23rd June 2018. I managed to get a sample large enough to rate. Copper body, beige head that hung around. Malty molasses rule the brew, some toffee in the nose, caramel in the taste along with a slight hop balance.
