Seasonal - Autumn and Winter. Brewed with Chocolate and Crystal malts to produce this deep bronze coloured beer with a hint of malty flavour, bittered by the traditional Golding hop varieties, this is a classic strong bitter complimented by the aromatic warmth of Chinese stem ginger.

    (4.8%). Dark brown colour with some slight red hints, almost no head. Fruity hops in aroma along with spices. Flavour is fruits, berries and a bit wood. Also spices and some grassyness. Atleast a casked beer that is different, but not so sure if it’s in a good or bad way. More bad I would say...

    Oh man, this was great. Pours out in a clear amber colour, topped with a firm tan head. Fresh and intense aroma of oily minty hops, wood, licorice and wormwood. Straightforward but still very tasty flavour of resin, toffee, fir and mint with a slightly piney note. Long and quite bitter aftertaste of orange-peels and wormwood.
