500ml bottle: best before the end of June 2012, poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard in May 2012.

Amber in colour: fast fading off-white head of bubbles on top.

Smells like a fruit beer: red berries to the fore, honey just behind with brown bread used to mop it all up.

The taste isn't as sweet as the nose suggests: a hop citrus/bitterness isn't far below the surface of this mildly malty brew.

Strange mouthfeel, no richness or depth: yet it holds the flavours and hides the alcohol well.

The good quality 'Red Leicester' cheese I had towards the end of this review really set the beer off nicely: different, interesting and worth finding.
