COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Seasonal - November to January.
This ruby red beer exhibits all the rich body and hoppy, wintry aromas of much stronger beers. Well matched to the season in which it is brewed.

maeib (6637) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - DEC 19, 2007
Cask conditioned - handpump - Moon On The Square - Northampton. A copper coloured beer with a tight white head. The aroma is lightly hoppy with some creaminess, but this might just be he head. The taste has light hops to and a creamy texture but this might be just extra body..

Cask at the Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough. Golden colour with a slim, creamy white head. Hoppy aroma. Flavour is hops and background malts. Pretty drinkable, but I found it a bit ordinary.
