Presented with a good three inch of bouffant puff pastry; from a side angle it looks like Beavis (or is it Butthead) therefore flatters to deceive somewhat and underneath is not exactly spilling out. There is a dollop of medium grade braised steak inside and I can definitely taste the ale; or something distinctive anyway. The chips on the side are superb along with mushy peas so luminously green, they could pass for a gang of miniature aliens.
