Gravity cask at the 2017 Cambridge Beer Festival. Mid-brown with a touch of red, very translucent. Inconsistent film of off-white head. Smell of buttered toast, walnuts, toffee, brandy. Taste has a creamy malty sweetness to the fore, but there is a dogged resinous hoppy back-of-the-tongue bitterness that offers not so much balance as competition. Thin body. Toffee, Angustora bitters and red currant in the aftertaste. Not Oakham’s best, perhaps, but I certainly wouldn’t turn down another half!

(Cask at Rake, Borough, London, 22 April 2017) Reddish brown colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with notes of dark bread, toast and apricots. Malty, slightly roasted taste with dark bread, toast, apricots, orange peel and a generous earthy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Really tasty and exceptionally well balanced. Very nice.
