Cask conditioned at Adderbury Beer Fest ’07. Copper colour with short head. Pleasantly dark and malty beer with good fragrant hoppy flavour cutting through to make this an interesting and very drinkable beer.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20

Dark brown colour with no head.
Weak aroma of caramel.
Flavour is mild sugar, caramel and tiny hints of fruits.
