Cask - Dark malty cocoa and toffee. Cloudy brown with a small white head. Date, cocoa and dark malts. Not really well balanced and thin.

On tap at Spinnakers, pours a hazy copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out light whiskey and toasted bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted bready malt and a pronounced whiskey note. Not a big fan of this style, but it's done well and is more flavourful than usual.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear mahogany with medium head. Aromas of biscuit , grass and a faint whiff of toffee. Watery flavors of toasted malts, caramel, and dried biscuit.

Handpump at the brewpub
Dark amber to brown color. Mild aroma of chocolatey malts. The flavor has caramel and some chocolate trace; the low carbonation helps the mouthfeel, which is semi-dry; the bitterness is quite low. Good.

Cask handpull at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Deep chestnut colour with ruby hints and a lasting thick beige head. Malty aroma, choccy again, maybe a bit more of a twang then the ESB, but still lacks depth and any hop bite. Good malts but just a bit nothingy in mouth. Slight tang on finish.
