Presentation: On tap.
Appearance: Deep copper in colour with a patchy sticky off white head.
Smell: Fine floral notes that mixes with some toasted grain and bready aromas, also there are hints of fruity esters.
Taste: A powerful punch of toasted malt, coarse hop bitterness (slight citrus notes) and a crisp carbonation meet up with a chewy malty mouthfeel of Munich and bready malt flavours. As this ale warms up a bit the malt flavours come out even more and alcohol make its presence as it warms the body.
Notes: This is an inviting ale, warms the body and soul to ward off the chills of winter.
