Nose lightly vinous with strawberry, cherry and caramel. Watery coffee, dank biscuit, shampoo hop and mushroom finish. Dry and uncomplicated; milky coffee, umami, chestnut, leaves. I’m making it sound more exotic and interesting than it is. Drab. duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England

Quite malty, and felt a bit sticky to me.Slight raw malt notes come through, with some light citric, earthy hop notes in the finish. More grainy/malty characters come through and as i mentioned its a bit sticky aswell. DJMonarch (6941), Northwich, Cheshire, England

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 1, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense) at St Albans Beer Festival , September 2006. Very attractive, burnished copper colour. Light, softly malty aroma. Full bodied, with a quite fat mouthfeel and a touch of sweetness, but a decent amalgam of earthy malt and spicy hops produce a well-balanced overall impression.
