Based on a Fuller's recipe from 1897. The colour is burnished gold. Aroma is an enticing blend of marmalade, toffee, spice and gunpowder/flint. The flavour starts clean but quickly moves into a marmalade warmth, more of an orange honey character than the way the malt presents in our house IPAs. This beer then has a dry finish, tea like, the fruit giving way slowly to something a touch herbal, a touch bitter. The bottle and keg version give sparkle and lightness, an effervescence that accentuates the refreshing character that these beers needed to provide at their destination.
