Cask & Bottle Conditioned, Seasonal, Winter;
An easy drinking, low gravity bitter with a hint of roasted barley and loads of aroma hops to help you to get over Christmas and New Year. You can drink plenty without falling over!

Pleasingly hopped nose with floral notes. Pours a muddy copper (although, to be fair, I could have been more careful with the sediment). The flavour is at first ok - some citrus and a hint of sweet malt - but it develops in two unpleasant ways: the bitterness becomes a cloying sourness, and the mouthfeel gets very watery. Not a great beer.
