Craft 100 at Craft Clapham. Cask. Clear amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Very modest dark malts, not much presence at all. Good raspberry and floral bitterness. Light finish. There is more fruit beer than stout here. Long floral bitter linger.

Cask at The Southern. Black body with a medium beige head. Good lacing. Aroma of wood, dark chocolate and toast. Flavour of roasted malt, tangy blueberry skins and a bitter, burnt note on the finish. Thin body with a foamy mouthfeel. Faint prickle of carbonation. A bit too thin and the acrid finish doesn’t clean very well.

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 26th March 2016. Deep ruby with thin pale tan head and virtually no lacing. Berry fruits aroma - raspberry to the fore. Slightly smoky roastiness in-mouth with prominent, yet not overwhelming, raspberry. Both flavours linger in the finish, with the smokiness lasting a fair time longer. Fair-bodied with a solid mouthfeel. Rated as a novelty ale.

Cask at CASK Pub Kitchens. It pours dark ruby - black with a thick light tan head. The aroma is rich roast, chocolate, cocoa, rocky road, some dull jammy raspberry and dull smoke. The taste is decent roast, charred wood, ashy, spice, hint of raspberry pip, chewy malt and tangy fruits, peppery and mild with a dey, charred roast finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Decent, but pretty dry and charred. Overall decent, but not as much raspberry character as I had hoped.
