Bottle shared in London - thanks to Paul. Pours clear golden-russet with a mild foam head. The nose has simple yeast, berries, bread. Medium sweet flavor with light paper, grain, ripe berries, faint leafy bitterness. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Simple bready malt finish, some faint caramel, leaves, grain, toasted hay. So so.

50cl bottle from Bottle Shop Goods Shed Canterbury. This is probably my favourite of the seasonals from Harveys so looking forward to it even though it will be pasteurised and risks diacetyl. Clear copper amber colour with lasting thin off white head. As I guessed its no where near as good as on cask. In fact the puke on the aroma is pretty bad. Ok mouthfeel. Some prickle of carbonation on finish. Pure rubbish man. No Harveys house yeast is shown. Vague fruit salad flavour. Pure apple crumble puke poor beer. Wish I could pour it away but I am on a train.
