Cask at Wellington, Brum. Dark and glossy. Head flees leaving a beige crescent clinging to half of the glass. Aroma has a coffee tang with light tar molasses. Flavourwise it has an initial tangyness. Underlying bitterness before developing molasses sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Stick carbonation. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Decent enough.

Cask, half pint. @"Liverpool Camra Beer Fest", Liverpool (England) 21/02/2026
[#8.946 Global - #1.226 England - #1 Neptune Brewery (My English Brewery #386)]
Labelled as "Baltia", but I guess it´s the same beer. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma: coffeish malts, milk chocolate and burnt brown sugar. Taste: brown sugary malts and light coffee beans. Dry mouthfeel.
Next one, please!

Cask at the Crown & Kettle, Manchester. Practically black with a creamy-frothy off-white head. Its' gritty, milky-sweet in its dark maltiness, and dryish, all of which is an odd mix but it just about works. Has a denser mouthfeel than its texture would suggest.
