Bottle. Dark copper in colour with a decent, off-white head. chocolate and berry fruit aroma. Flavour was sweet, with caramel, more chocolate and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Bottle from West Country Ales
Light chestnut brown...frothy white head..reasonable lacing
Aroma - light caramel malts...very light citrus and grass hops....light aroma....hint of smoke
Taste - Caramel malts....very light grassy hops...bit of citrus...some toffee...bit watery...flavours a bit too muted
Palate - Medium carb....thin body....light tangy. Finish as main flavour but leaves a mouth-coasting of light caramel toffee.
Overall - Reasonable bitter...a tad watery....would probably be better cask
