Cask @ Shrewsbury Beer Festival 2017. Pours amber, small off-white head. Good whiskey presence in the aroma, appearing prominent on the palate. The light malt base of Boiling Well seems to be overpowered by the whiskey barrel-aging here, and I can’t help feeling Black Knight may have been a better choice. Still, it’s decent.

19th July 2017: Shrewsbury Beer Festival, cask. Deep amber body, off-white topping. Plenty of whiskey esters in the nose, the taste is also whiskey first: not really my thing. Scored objectively.
