Can. Buxton online. I think. Clear dark brown. Thin ring of foam. Nose has pumpkin spice nonsense. Nutmeg gratings. Some clove. Taste is semi sweet and fairly dry. Some burnt sugar bitterness. Thin overall. Burnt sugar finish. Not my thing.

Cask at White Horse, Hedgerley, Bucks. A dark brown/black coloured pour with a thin off white head on top. Sweetish, roasty, malty, pumpkin, spice. Quite a tasty porter.

Cask at Hops d’Amour, Coventry on 31st October 2025. Rated as a novelty ale. Deep sepia with pale tan foam and spot lacing. Very spicy aroma. Liquid pass of spiciness often associated with Christmas novelty beers, but balanced with fruitiness. A rich and flavoursome finish of spices, woods, peppers and an almost cheesy savoury hint. Smooth mouthfeel and plenty of body. Interesting and I enjoyed it.
