(Cask at Carpenter’s Arms, Marble Arch, London, 22 May 2011) Dark brown colour with hints of ruby. Frothy beige head. Malty nose with notes of caramel, raisins, prunes and dark bread. Malty taste with caramel, dark bread, toasty malt, raisins, prunes and a slightly bitter-sweet finish. Rather light body with smooth mouthfeel. A touch of sweetness and a mild bitterness. Quite nice.

[Cask at The Falcon (JDW), High Wycombe] Beautiful ruby-chestnut colour with a thick creamy head. Rich and smooth, with fruity caramel up front, but did rather collapse into a mildly bitter and dusty finish. Not as good as first impressions suggested.

Gravity cask at the Stourbridge beer festival. Pours ruby brown with no head. Aroma was sour fruity coffee. Taste didn’t have much to start. Some fruit on the finish with a little coffee on the aftertaste. Watery.

Cask @ Counting House, JDW. Amber colour, tan head. Aroma is slight roasted malts and caramel. Flavour is caramel malts, bit of coffee, light roastiness. Roasty finish. Pleasant.
