Handpull cask at the Criterion, Leicester. Light to mid-brown. Clear. Not a lot of the off-white head - just a film really - but there's lots of lacing. Malty caramel scent with a touch of glue resin. There's some strong chestnut as well. Taste is a bit of a let down: it's sweet but there's an off vegetal flavour. Slight sourness in the finish. It's not great.

Cask at the Wild Boar. Poured a clear dark brown with a thin off white head. The aroma is floral, medicinal hop, some yeast. The flavour is moderate bitter with a smooth yeast, light medicinal, light fruit, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Got the impression there was more yeast in this than there should have been.

Sampled at the brewery. Pours clear brown with a white head. Aroma is light fruity and malty with a strange unidentifiable note. Flavour is light sweet and bitter with malty and nutty aspects in the palate. Light bodied.
