Draft -Toasted malts and some toffee. Dark clear brown with a rich edge head. Toffee, twig and a hoppy bitterness. I get more of an American bitter more than anything else from this.

This ale poured a deep red colour with an off white, foamy head. Scents include ripe fruit, sweet malt and hops. First swig was smooth with heavy flavours of malt, smoke, cocoa and a little whiskey. Finish is malty with sweet almost molasses aftertaste, with a nice hop flavour lingering.

Cask : a hazed dirty amber ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with strawberry notes, sweet and cloying, butterscotch, OK. In mouth, a sweet caramel malt with light grassy hops, scotch character, OK. Cask at c’est what beer fest.
