Cask at Borough Arms, Crewe. Pours dark ruby with a small cream head and excellent lacing. There’s malts, raisins and parkin in the aroma. In the mouth it is fairly sweet with a creamy texture. Malts are very dominant in the flavour along with dark fruit and toffee and hints of herbs and spice. The malt lasts into the slightly dry finish. This is a decent 80/- beer – but the correct description is an Export not a Heavy (that is 70/-).

Cask at Curlers Rest in Glasgow. Dark clear red with an off-white head. Lightly sweetened traditional Scottish ale that edges towards a darker maltiness but is more red ale territory - regardless or nevertheless it's pretty tasty. Also tried again at the Last Drop in Edinburgh
