COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask & Bottled;
A historically accurate beer based on the recipe devised on the 8th of February 2007. Recreated using the finest coloured malts which provide the complex sweet malt character which initially arouses the senses. Like a fine cheese cake the biscuit base has a smooth and creamy layer that both satisfies and entices. Culminating with a delicate fruit topping of blackcurrant and tinges of citrus to refresh the participant, complimented fully by the crisp dry bitter finish.

Bottled (thanks magic_dave6!). Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is caramel malts, slight alcohol and very much hops. Flavour is grassy hops along with some caramelly hints. The flavour was a bit disappointing compared to the aroma.
