On handpump at the Prince of Wales, Twickenham. Darkish brown bitter with malt, earth and a hint of chocolate on the nose. Body is generous and malty, with fruit notes, some earthy bitterness, and a malt-bitter finish. Nice example of a bitter.

Though Beermad lists this as dead, its presence at the Old Green Tree in Bath on August 18th would indicate otherwise. Amber colour with a slight haze. Light, fruity character. Light toastiness, maybe some pedio in there as well. I really wasn’t blown away by this one.
