[May 2022] Amber pour with a small frothy white head and a sweet fruity aroma, also a bit dusty. Toffee sweet flavour and a hint of bitterness in the finish, a little disappointing truth be told

Handpull cask from the Salmon, Leicester. Copper brown and clear with a beige/khaki head. Spicy and nutty aroma with light metallic notes. Sweet taste, slightly nutty again with caramel and some light stone fruit. Soft carbonation on a medium body. A very well-crafted bitter.

Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a copper red with a tight white head and good lacing. A malt nose is echoed in the mouth, where the taste is predominantly malted milk biscuits. Also some toffee and hints of spices. A bit watery but that is a good thing. Finish is bitter and hoppy. A nice solid traditional bitter.
