7/7/2021. Bottle from the Real Ale Shop, Wells. Poured 70 minutes into England v Denmark, its 1-1 and I’m hoping it’ll be England who will be the Magnificent Men come full time. Settles slightly hazy dark amber bronze with a small creamy off-white head. Aroma of toffee, malt, bread, biscuit, fruit, marmalade, earthy notes. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Full bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation. Chewy warming finish. Good beer. But it’s now 80 minutes and still 1-1. PS - we won!!

4/6/2021. Bottle from the Real Ale Shop, Wells. Pours with a huge frothy white head, all head and no beer for ages. After a long wait it eventually settled clear straw gold. Was it worth the wait though? Pleasingly yes. Nice fruity, hay, light malt and touch spicy nutty aroma. Towards medium sweetness, light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Easy drinking and very sessionable golden ale.

22/11/2020. Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours dark amber/brown with a frothy off-white head. Aroma is malty, toffee, fruity, touch of cooking chocolate, biscuit, sweet brown bread. Medium sweetness and moderate bitterness with a slight hint of tartness. Medium body, quite fizzy though calmed down. Bittersweet finish. Definitely improved, but quite an aptly named beer.
