A well balanced and full bodied beer demonstrating fruitiness, with the Crystal Malt content being distinctive. The hoppy mouth gives way to a sweeter finish.

Bottled. Fruity esters are the first thing to stand out. Has a malty character that approaches that of a macro American ale. Probably way off style, but I enjoyed it.
