L- Medium chestnut, clear, pours with 1Cm pale tan fine-bubble head, with ongoing very fine rising carbonation. The head holds up very well.
S- Some toasty malts and richness.
T- Lovely taste, a bready taste develops on the palate alongside and into a toasty note.
F- Hoppy enough to be refreshing, meaty enough (at 5.2%) to be satisfying even on a bleak winter's day. I could slow-sup a session of an evening on this beer.
O- My wife visited Cardiff and brought me back five bottles of beer, of which this is one. First off, I am quite taken aback at how fine this beer is; there is absolutely zero out of place or balance that I've noticed. On top of that, the Look, Taste + Feel all join together into a superb whole. (My sense of smell is often lousy in Winter and so, much harder for me to define!). I had this in the fridge and as I near the end it's warming a touch. I'd suggest not chilling it too hard, the malty richness opens up when the harder chill has lifted. Superb, I'd very happily drink this again.
