3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Poured a clear medium brown with an average sized frothy light brown head that did not have the greatest retention and had good lacing. The aroma was of a nutty dark bread malt, a mild leathery yeast and a very slight hint of hops with notes of citrus, honey and some spiciness. It tasted a little acidic and sweet with a mild dark roast undertone at first and then got very mildly bitter with a hint of citrus and a mild alcohol finish. Mouthfeel was light ot medium in body and oily in texture with a nice lively carbonation. Overall a nice brew but could have been a little more flavorful.

Bottle, Rehills, Ncl. One of the few beers with an aroma I would describe as ’beery’! Sweetness from the honey in both aroma and taste, with a good balance provided by the citrus peel and spices. Very flavoursome and moresih, with a beautiful claret appearance.
