downender (2537), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Oct 5, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Royal Oak, Bath 5/10/08. Deep amber in colour with reddish undertones and a lacy, off-white head. Fruity malt aroma with some indeterminate spicing and earthy hops. The flavour started with some sweet malt before hints of ginger and other spices (coriander?) leading to a short bitter finish. A decent beer to head towards winter to.
