Inspired by the historic brewery of Tyneside, Northern England, this approachable ale features a deep reddish-brown hue with a creamy tan head that invites exploration. The aroma carries rich notes of dark toasted bread, coffee, chocolate, and caramel, with a subtle hint of roast. Light-bodied with a dry finish and medium carbonation.

Poured from the can into a nonic(k) pint glass.
Faint khaki forming heading, with almost nitrous appearance of fine bubbles. Making just a little over two fingers in height the brew sinks with no lacing on top of a deep reddish brown body. Some clarity is apparent even though it's fairly dark in appearance.
Nice hints of classic toast and nuts on the nose. Aroma steers to classic and basics with some roast character and more of a thick presence than dry airy malty character, and more towards silky milky chocolate.
Palate keeps it simple. Light bodied, faint touches of mineral wetness and carbonation. More dryness than anticipated, with hints of toasted bread and faint dark coffee notes. Less of a chocolate angle and more of a bitter earthy finish, almost flirting with a tiled soil angle.
Pretty solid and tasty English like brown ale that's a bit of a step up than the basic one that the can art hints at.

On draught. A mahogany colored pour with clarity and a thick head that dissipates and leaves some intricate lacing up top, then goes slippery.
Toasted caramel malt flavor, toffee notes, dark bread, and mild hops bitterness.
Mouthfeel is on the light side.
