Half pint on gravity at The Ipswich Beer Festival. Amber-brown in colour. Low foamy layer. Complex brew with well balanced juicy and dried fruit. Moderate bitter finish. Almost full bodied. Extra score for the name (21.09.2006).

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Colour is amber, with a dense off-white head, staying for quite a while. Nose is fruity and sweet (almost honey scented) with apricots, oranges and mandarin. Hints of sewage as well. Taste is fruity with grapefruit and caramel, rather sweet. Ends with a long bitter finish, filled with dusty, flowery hops. Malty, full body. Surprisingly sweet, but I can’t resist the lovely hoppy finish. Refreshing.

Cask gravity Dover BF 06. Copper with thin head. Nice fruit, very drinkable. Good premium bitter. Could drink a lot of this. Good balance, well made beer (as SilkTork wouldn’t say)

Sampled cask conditioned. Copper coloured. Nutty. Light bodied, sweet. Fruity, very distinct roasty flavour. A hint of apples. Medium bitterness. A beer with a lot of personality.
