BrianExcellent24 Sep 2010 A guest in a Sheps pub and an excellent one at that. Copper colour (obviously), bubbly white head, smells right (if you know what I mean), excellent balance between plummy fruit and malt and good sting in the finish. Perfectly balanced beer and very well served.

IanAcceptable17 Nov 2006 Reddish copper colour with lasting bubbly beige head. Some yeast and promise of sweet fruity malt on the aroma. Bit of herby hop there too. Sweetish caramel/toffee and malty fruit in the mouth, juicy too. Really quite sweet and then some herby hop on end. Nice enough, but a bit too sweet. Tasted a bit like an overly sweet pint of Hooky.
