500ml bottle, best before Apr 2012, poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard 4 Nov 2011.

Lovely autumnal red colour, the white head sadly wispy and weak: a collar stayed throughout the review, but I want a head on my beer!

Woody aroma, pine hop and some malty molasses in the nose too.

The beer has a smooth semi-sweet malt front, some hop bitterness appears half way through each mouthful and gives the beer a harsher finish than expected from the initial taste.

Fairly rich and thick body wise, its clear looks giving no indication of its depth.

I love beers this colour and with a malt swetness, what a pity the head couldn't stay with the tasting.
