Pasteurised bottle.
A full-bodied and malty ale with a rounded, smooth fruit palate and a tight, creamy head that laces all the way down the glass. Rich in colour with a smooth, creamy texture and a distinctively strong flavour.

(bottle) Dark amber body and a lasting, off-white head. Buttery, caramel nose with lots of medium-roasted malt and light hops. Moderately sweet, soft and a light-bodied. Light bitterness in the aftertaste. It’s simple, but very drinkable.

Bottle courtesy of Craig aka cgarvieuk, cheers mate. Had this in field at Towersey Festival, Oxon, w/e 20th-25th August 08 Some fruitiness shows quickly along with a soft maltiness but I find this a touch thin and watery, although I’m drinking this out of a horrible ceramic mug which I’m not sure does my beers any favours (it’ll be ditched) Its ok.

12 oz. bottle. Pour is bright copper, 1-finger white, creamy, persistent head. Aroma is malty, chocolate is first impression. Taste is fruity, malty, smooth and lightly buttery. Nice hop bitterness, balancing the malt. Full body yet not overly filling.

Fruity and smoky aroma, sweet taste in moderation, roasted notes with some ashy vibes along with some hops in the end. Autumnal beer, would buy again.
