Half-pint, 6 % abv, festival cask ale at Lord Palmerston. Near-clear red-brownish body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Dried fruity nose, hints of caramel malts, inviting. Blended taste of stewed fruits and caramel malts. Mid-sweet malty ending, dry. Rounded mouthfeel and fine bodied. Pretty decent. (JDW). (Southsea 18.10.2022).

Festivaløl. Amber. Nesten helt klar. Filmskum med litt farge. Lett sukkertøyaroma. Smaken søt. Balansert. Tørr fruktig bitter avslutning.

Cask (gravity) at Standing Order, Derby (at 6%). Pours a dark chestnut with no head whatsoever. There’s a slight fruitiness in the aroma, but not much. In the mouth it has a creamy texture with marmalade and ginger to the fore. After a while, treacle and autumn fruits start ro come through and the alcoholic strength begins to show. Finish is fruity and boozy. This is excellent !

Cask @ Moon Under Water, Manchester. Copper-amber with a glow. Notably strong but its biscuit and mild winter fruit provides enough flavour to be able to enjoy this winter warmer. Has a bitter finish.

Pours a coppery amber colour with a small, mostly lasting, foamy beige head. Aroma is malty and fruity, toffee and ripe fruit. A sweetish fruity and malty taste, sweet malts, toffee and ripe fruit flavours with a bittersweet finish.

Spotty beige head on a dark copper coloured body. Malt, toffee & fruity aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a tingle on the back. Malt, liquorice, toffee, peppery & orange tastes with a tangy fruity finish. Tasty.

Bottle from Morrisons, Aldershot. Aroma had sweet caramel and berries. Clear dark amber. Thin creamy off-white head soon fades. Light-medium bitter. Woody. Tangy. Sour berry streak gains traction. Underlying malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat-average carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Interesting enough.

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear copper colour with a thin fast dissipating head. Aromas of dry dark fruits, cherries, caramel, toasty bread and spice. Taste has more dark fruits, cherries, fruit cake, caramel, toasty bread, spice and also a touch of warming alcohol. Thinnish body, fair amount of carbonation and slightly oily mouthfeel. Quite a nice beer but with more body and less carbonation it could have been very good.
