500ml Clear bottle: best before Apr 2013, poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard on Sunday 10 June 2012.
Nice brown, deep amber coloured body: on top an off-white head sat on top.
Malty, nutty aroma and taste with a spritzy, well carbonated bodyfeel a slight hop bitterness appears towards the end of each sip, but this is a malt first brew, the hops important but secondary in prominence.
