Amber with a small off white head. Not much aroma: what there was of it was malty. Sweet, rounded malt taste with bread and biscuit. Slight bitterness. After a couple of citric golden ales, this was a pleasant change: a thoroughly enjoyable, warming, satisfying autumnal ale. harrisoni (6830), Ashford, Kent, England
