A- deep amber with a creamy 2 finger head, a nice looking ale.

S- Sorry, i just could not get anything here, maybe some faint sweet malt graininess, but nothing apparent

T- Not overly fruitful, just the way i like it, i hate bitters that have too much grapefruit qualities. This was well balanced with a lingering nutty aftertaste. Very nice

M- Lovely creamy mouthfeel, with low carbonation

D- Very nicely balanced, with some nice taste qualities, a very sessionable ale

Another winner tried at the Lord Moon Of The Mall pub. This ale was a clear deep amber in color. it was topped by a semi airy white head that left scattered rings of lacing. Light earthy aroma did not hint at the blast of grapefruity hops that attacked my taste buds. Hoppy ale that managed a good balance. Smooth and drinkable as usual. Why can't i have cask ale here at home that tastes like it does in the U.K.? This beer is a real gem.
