Appearance: brown with gold tones, great clarity, medium layer of frothy off-white foam, strands of lace
Aroma: standard malt'n'hops, touch of iron, yeasty background
Flavor: dry malt base, tangy edge, vegetal hop flavor, powdery yeastiness, finishes dryish with a lingering hop bitterness
Mouthfeel: medium-full body, mild carbonation, a bit minerally
Other comments: Not particularly astounding. The label states that it is fermented in the Yorkshire square system... not sure it's worth the effort.

500ml bottle
Pours with an amber body, slight head, some lacing, very little heard retention
Smell, musky, some hints of fruit
Taste, grain and musk are the primary flavours, some esters in the background, very little hop presence
An average ale, dunno about this one
