First tasted this in the Three Judges, Glasgow in September 2005. Cask, handpump dispense. Clear pale amber in colour with a thin white head. Slight hint of soft caramel on the nose. Thin resiny mouthfeel and good lacing. Mixed malts give a maltloaf base laced with syrupy raisins, caramel, dark berry fruits. Strong hop resins in the bitter aftertaste. Finish is slightly sweet with redcurrants evident. An ok session ale.

(Cask at Market Porter, London) Clear copper body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, some raisin, ligt floral. Light body.
