Cracking beer, a well balanced best bitter with an appealing sweet taste but well balanced with malt and bitterness. Check it out.

ACD (337) - Dublin, IRELAND - APR 12, 2013
Cask conditioned at The Porterhouse, Temple Bar. Hazy amber/brown with thin off white head. Aroma is muted with some caramel, earthy spice, and stewed fruit. Taste gives a lot of caramel, touches of red berry, herbal earthy notes, and a touch of citric hop bite. Medium mouthfeel. Not bad, fairly well-balanced and easy going.

Graham77 (86) - Glasgow, SCOTLAND - MAR 30, 2013
500 ml bottle pours a dark reddish, amber colour with a small off white head. The aroma is caramel with some floral hops and this taste likewise with perhaps some citrus. A very good amber ale.

Enjoyed from cask at Wenlock & Essex in Islington borough after a long work day. This was just what I needed. I didn’t take notes as I was eating a nice meal, but I remember this being fantastic with a nice, hoppy aroma. Ok, that’s my review!

We want 8, we want 8. Although, it’s not looking likely. Interesting day, I’ve had fun but I’m a little miffed as well. That’s family for you. I’ve certainly put a dent in their booze cupboard. The only thing with purity round here is the pure alcohol that I’m pissing. I’m a delightful soul...
