3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A light brown colour and creamy head. This is a bitter that has a great balance of flavour, neither too bitter or too sweet. A perfect session bitter. Sadly only available in keg nowadays but still much superior to the mainstream nitro-keg bitters.

Been drinking this for years but it’s hard to come by now, the beer has a creamy and smooth taste with a very bitter aftertaste and palate, an acquired taste I think
