Pint on tap. Brown color, clear, big creamy offwhite head with cascade. Aroma of english hops, woody tones, light biscuit malt with some sulphur. Flattish taste slightly sour, lighr to medium body, soft carbonation. Seems wild.

Cask handpull at the moon under water Watford. Dull copper coloured pour with a thin greyish head. Aroma is nutty brown bread, unrefined sugars, some dried fruits. Flavour is composed of nutty malts, flinty mineral, tangy berry, dry mineral finish. Palate is semi sweet, moderate cask condition, rounded. OK.

Appearance- dark, mahogany, a two-finger pillowy off-white head. Fairly clear despite the colour. Aroma- caramel, nutty, hints of golden syrup and/or honey, brown bread, toasted nuts, hints of dried dark fruits. Taste- malt-forward, nutty, hints of overdone fruitcake, bready, hints of milk chocolate. Mouthfeel is slightly watery. Solid stuff.
