Cask at the Blue anchor Helston. A clear dark amber brown coloured pour with a a lasting beige head. Aroma is semi sweet, tangy, cakey malts, apple, fig pud, dried fruits, fruit loaf. Flavour is composed of bitter wood, dark cakey malts, fig, raisin, twig and bark. Good fun. Palate is semi sweet light tang, mellow condition.

Bottle from the online shop. Clear deep copper. Barely a head. Nose has hedgerow fruit. Cardboard. Plum. Sweet malt. Taste has a soft sweetness. Gets dry and moderately bitter. Light to medium body. Fine carbonation. Dry and bitter finish. Pity about the cardboard thing.

Bottle thanks to Ashton McCobb. Pours clear chestnut brown with a thin off-white head. Aromas of toffee, brown bread. Taste has a hint of red fruit, hazelnuts, caramel. Classic representation of the style.

Bottle from the Blue Anchor brewery online shop. Appearance - amber to chestnut brown. Beige, creamy head. Nose - toffee, caramel and bready. A hint of red fruit and orange peel. Taste - mainly caramel, some bread and toffee. Palate - medium bodied, sweet middle and light roasty bitterness on the finish. Overall - will have to visit the Blue Anchor one day as the cask reviews for their beers seem to be better than those from bottle.
gave a cheers!
