Pigs Ear Day 1. Cask. Opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Palate is light, dry and has decent fine carbonation. Bitterish dark malts, touch of dark chocolate. Tangy dark fruits. Some orangey hop starts to rise to the surface. Some floral bitterness and then a Chritmas Pud vibe on the light semi dry finish. Bit dry but flavoursome.
