Commercial Description:
Cask; Special - June 2007 (Saints & Sinners series).
Sunflower yellow in colour with a bold and boisterous citrus hop aroma, which leads to a solid malty depth of flavour, which, finishes in an audaciously bitter biting aftertaste. Not for the faint hearted!

Cask. June 2007. Light amber with a short head. Sugar and toffee in the scent. Really bitter. Nice body with some sweetness and a slightly dry finish. Slightly sugary-biscuity taste, and a hint of citrus fruits but this is nearly masked by the overwhelming hops and bitter.

Cask conditioned at The Wheatsheaf, West Bromwich, W.Midlands. Yellow to straw with white head. Quite a thin body for the ABV, biscuity malt with a light flowery bittersweet hop note. Part of the Saints and Sinners range, which I am reliably informed are blends. Its ok without being spectacular. Lovely pub though to start our Black Country tour.
