15 cl. cask @ Brassigaume 2013. Hazy touch darker orange with a creamy white head. Nose is mellow & full of hops liked by UK brewers, esp. C ones, fruity but sadly also a dash of something off, something akin to acetone / something industrial. Taste is sweet caramel, lots of hops, C. hops, juicy, touch citrus, grapefruit, nice malt base, touch toffee, true to style but once again same slight off-flavours. Still pretty good but I think that the cask has gone off slightly unfortunately. Their other 3 cask’s luckily revealed no issues. Very full body for ABV & cask.

Cask @ Brassigaume ’13. Orangée léger, col blanc. Arôme est houblonné, pointe douce et fleuri gardant ce côté houblonné américain et de feuilles vertes. Palais est malté gardant ce côté très British, se retrouve relevé par les houblons pour un fruité agréable rappelant bien ce côté US et zélandais mais avec ce soupçon de houblons euro-nobles. Fini sec, pointe d’épice et herbacé.
