Festival ale poured from cask at JDWs Victoria Station. Clear dark brown coloured body. Shiny surface. Poor lacing. Spiced fruity malts to the nose. Marmalade and caramel malts in flavour. Dry in the mouth. Easy to drink and carries some enjoyment (London, 02.11.2012).

Hand-pulled pint in my local Wetherspoons (Wellington, Shropshire) on 2 Nov 2012: during the Beer Festival. Good healthy looking, warm reddy, brown ale with a thick foaming head, creamy in texture and colour: the head gave some heavy lacing as the beer sank. Fruity, malty (toffee) notes in the nose and taste with a dry finish but not overly bitter in that dryness. Tasting notes mentioned spice: I couldn’t find any evidence of spices in my pint, but I did enjoy it.
