Apr 18, 2004 Updated: May 1, 2008Hand pulled at The Anchor, Birmingham. Marshmallow aroma. Red/brown colour, with soapy lacing and no head. Lovely malty brew - soft, cakey, with a burst of bitterness to finish. A jostling mouthfeel, with some warmth, hints of raspberry and an Autumnal flavour. Rather good. RE-RATE draught at the Figure of Eight, Birmingham - delicious, juicy Bitter. In fact the best kind of Bitter - such a good hop/malt blend, including jiciness, freshness, tartness and fullness. Superb.

Jun 7, 2002 red-amber colour, few head but a nice lace, hoppy and fruity with a good malt body, the sweetness is followed by a solid bitterness and a long fruity finish - complex and very subtle, a wonderful brew !

Jul 27, 2007 500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 5.0%. Beautiful deep amber colour, large off-white head, leaves a nice lacing. Sweetish aroma with plenty of malts, notes of caramel, bakery and raisins. The flavour is very rich and malty, but also fruity with well balanced hops. Not too sweet. Hoppy aftertaste. A first class premium bitter in my book.

Jun 22, 2004 Cask conditioned @ JDW, Soton. Fruity malt aromas with faintly floral hops. Well balanced and as the name implies smooth. Pleasant with no suprises.
