Rotten vegetables and malt aroma. Very liquid with low carbonation. Taste of malt, little caramel, straw, and a hint of bitterness.

Keg pint on 20th December 2024: Robert Raike's House. Nice looking beer, deep amber with a decent crown on top. Malty front but lacks any real depth of flavour, much prefer the cask version when I can get it!

Cask at The Anchor Tap at London Bridge. Amber orange pour. Creamy beige head. Rich, buttery malt nose. Flavor is sweet toffee malt. A hint of barrel. Amazingly smooth and rich. Lovely herbal hop finish.

On cask in 🇬🇧. Smooth mild beginning. Creamy woody. Easy to drink with a great soft caramelly back. Wood there, hints of grain. Mild and easy to drink. Fruity mild in the end. Great stuff.
