Nutty and malty at first, making room eventually for a gentle, earthy hop note and a light waft of orange.
Palate
Nutty, malty and bitter to begin, with a little roasted grain character. Hops push through to add dryness and a touch of astringency, but there's always a
background sweetness to even things out.
Finish
Nutty, malty and bitter with increasing hop character.
Comment
A fairly robust, ‘old-fashioned' tawny ale with lots of flavour.
