Bottle. Reddish brown beer with a light head. The aroma is weakly roasted and the flavour is quite rich, roasted, and malty with a mildly bitter finish. Overall a nice beer.

Dec 1, 2009 50ml bottle. Poured a dark red/brown with a small off white head; reasonably well carbonated. Aroma of caramel with alcohol quite pronounced.A very malty, reasonably heavy/full bodied beer with a satisfyingly long finish. One of the best Greene King bottled ales I have tasted in a long time. Recommended.

Oct 28, 2009 500ml bottle from Morrisons/ Very dark brown colour. Bready aroma, some butter, diacetyl I think. Looks good though. Flavour has some decent fruit and brown sugar. LIttle bit of sting on finish. Bit sweet. It;s ok I suppose and a bit toasty on the malt. Sweet malt and ok if just uninspiring.
