Keg at the Cock, 27/12/13. Dark amber with a moderate off white covering. Nose is toffee, bready malt, background fruit, hint of vanilla, praline. Taste comprises caramel, berry fruit, woody, biscuit crumble, brown sugars. Medium bodied, fine carbonation. A style that rarely wows me and this one is a clasic example of why, not badly produced, just on the bland side.

Bottle from Good Taste, Crystal Palace. It pours clear dark amber with a thick beige head. The nose is wood, toast, earth, cardboard and sweet fruit. The taste is wood, caramel, varnish, brown bread, leaf, dried berry, astringency, some soap and dull lingering bitterness with a rather dry finish. Medium and fine, prickly carbonation. Plenty of dirty astringency going on. Soapiness ramps up as the beer warms. Doesn’t really work for me. A bit of a disappointment...

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear, dark amber with a large, lasting frothy light tan cap; the beer couldn’t really look any better. The aroma holds toasted malts, touches of dried berries, brown bread. Light to medium sweet flavor with a balanced, lightly toasted brown bread character, hints of toffee, semi-dark dried fruits, offsetting bitterness of earth and subtle pine. Light bodied with average, massaging carbonation. Some dirty hops in the finish, dirt and pine, more dry, lightly toasted brown bread, dried cranberries, grape skins. In terms of the appearance and the mouthfeel this is a pretty stellar beer. The bitterness is a touch overly pronounced at times; a bit more sweetness would balance that out. Good opening effort from this new brewery.

Cock Tavern. Hazy dark red-amber beer with a tidy pale cream coloured head. Smooth palate with light fine carbonation. Sweet creamy malts. Sweet fruits. Lactose. Apples. Finishes sweet with a touch of grain. Messy, over sweet and a bit green. Hate to give a new brewer an average mark but this really needs some tweaking.
