Black beer, tan head. Malty aroma. Flavour has toasty malt, a bit of cocoa, something a little earthy too. Simple but tasty with a good body. Rather decent, if a touch watery in the finish somehow.

Cask @ Veritas, Leeds. Hazy amber-blonde with a creamy head. It has a light fruity-hoppy aroma and taste, but is somewhat bland.
