Bottle from Stori. Appearance - deep amber with a very slightly off white head. Nose - Highland toffee with an edge of shortbread. Taste - more of the same. Palate - close to medium bodied. Chewy texture. Initial sweetness that finishes fairly dry eventually. Overall - more of a Bitter than an Amber ale.

Third by hand-pulled cask at GBBF Winter, Jewellers Bar. Shared with Finn. Misty warm golden body, bubbles on the surface, rings of lace down the glass. Moderate malt-fruity nose, semi sweet. Hints of honeyed malts to the taste buds added by distant dried fruits to the ending. Fair enough. (Birmingham 05.02.2020).

Bottle from Rhug Farm Shop, Wales. Amber-brown with a negligible white head and a middling fizz. Dominated by caramel and malt, with a touch of Ribena and a smidgen of spice. Negligible hop presence. It's on the sweet side, and the mouthfeel is rather clammy, but it's just about drinkable.
