Cask@Dark Beer Fest 2025, The Hope, Carshalton (27/11/2025) - new English brewery ✅ with a more balanced malty hoppy affair, some cocoa and roasted malts, hoppy fruity citrus undertones, hoppy and roasted ashy earthy malty finish. Nice one.

Cask at The Red Lion, Cromer. Dark fruit & grapefruit aromas. Taste is jammy dark fruits, grapefruit & raisin. Sweet malty aftertaste.

8/10/2025. Cask at the Fat Cat, Ipswich. Excellent pour. A very drinkable and sessionable bipa which plays all the right bipa notes but at a more modest strength than most. Really good.
