On gravity at the Bank, Bristol 08/08/09. Deep copper in colour with a slight white head. Aroma of biscuit malts and grassy hops. Flavour had plenty of chewy malt, a whiff of orange hops and smoething sweet in the background, before a satisfying bitter finish. A lot going on for 3.7% ABV and very drinkable.
