Bottle labeled 2009.

Pours a bright copper, with a small head that fades to a little layer quickly. Smells grassy and bready, overall pretty clean for an 'english' style ale. Taste is great, really good, its crisp, with a clean bitterness and a pleasant grassy back side. It's a clean tasting British ale, an oxymoron maybe, but damn it works.

Smooth and fresh, good levels are carbonation really bring out the aroma, and wonderfully drinkable I'm already excited about my next one, or two.
