Cask @ Peaky Blinders, Southport. Hazy copper-amber with a creamy-frothy head. Stewed fruitiness in both aroma and taste, probably on the turn given I was told it was the end of the barrel.

Gravicask, second day at The 14th Robin Hood Beer and Cider Festival 2022, Marquee Bar A. Shared with Finn. Filmy layer, scattered lacing, clear dark amber body. Caramel malty nose, hints of dark fruits. Balanced taste profile of earthy malts, caramel, and ripe citrus. Malt-fruity tail. Nice, a bit thin on the swallow though. (Nottingham 13.10.2022).

Rocky off white head left a froth on a reddish amber coloured slowly carbonating body. Malt, berries & spiced aroma. Medium bodied, soft on the tongue with a lively cloying back. Malt, berries, tea, spiced fruit & toffee tastes with tangy finish. Easy going.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - thanks for the bottle and the ship label in particular!]. Clear, redd-ish, copper-ish, amber colour with small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, off-white head. Floral, slightly fruity, hoppy aroma, unspecific notes of petals, equally unspecific hints of berries, a mineral touch somehow, minimally leafy overtones. Taste is slightly dry, floral and minimally citrusy, fruity hoppy, hints of instant lemon tea, hibiscus, rose hip. Watery, but somehow dense, glossy, extremely homogeneous, in a way eased mercury-like texture, super soft, smooth palate, very fine, soft carbonation (the water used here must be excellent); well crafted, surprisingly beefy for its low abv - a little gem in its genre!

Panda to home, thanks to SHIG, 29/07/20. Clear reddish amber with a cap formed of just off white bubbles. Nose is treacle toffee, biscuit malts, dried fruits, brown sugar dusting. Taste comprises fruit slice, caramel, light leafy hop presence, biscuit crumbs, toasted grains, light candied fruit rinds. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent for the style.

25/7/2020. Bottle from Beer Cockermouth (beergb.com), and shared with the SHIG at our second Cumbrian bottle share. Pours clear dark amber with a bubbly/frothy off-white head. Aroma of spicy hops, malt, toffee, fruit and biscuit. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Medium body, slight creamy texture, average to soft carbonation. Earthy finish. Best of the day for me.

On cask at Romney's Gastro Pub, Kendal. Appearance - amber to autumnal red. Creamy off white head. Nose - light cakiness with just a hint of red fruit, possibly glace cherry. Taste - more cake. Light sweet spice. A hint of orange zest. Palate - creamy and close to medium bodied. Decent biscuit finish. Overall - good.
