Cask at Pigs Ear. Opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Smooth palate, a very light viscosity, good fine carbonation. Mellow dark malts, a tiny bit of chocolate and a lot of whiskey induced fruits, actually fairly tropical. Trace of peaty whiskey, a mild alcohol spice. Airy and semi dry finish. Comes together pretty well.

Pigs Ear 2025. Gravity. Very woody, some buggy funk, dark berries, licorice, roast, ash, booze, scorched earth. Twangy. Fun.

Gravity cask at day 2 of the 41st Pigs Ear Beer Festival, 03/12/2025.
Black topped with a khaki head that veers to a swirl.
Nose is bitter roast, dark malts, whisky blast, dried fruit esters.
Taste comprises roast malts, tangy fruits, figs, dates, cocoa sprinkle, molasses.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, drying close with a whisky coating.
Tidy BA cask affair.
