Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Sweet floral aroma, blackberries do come through. Dark with red highlights. Thin bubbly off-white head. Light bitter with a sour berry edge. Thin bodied. A certain creaminess. Average carb. Relatively abrupt finish. Perhaps somewhat basic but still enjoyable.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Crowns, Chippenham 14/9/2017. Near black with slight, tan head. Aroma was of bitter chocolate with a hint of roasted coffee. Flavours were of black fruit and more chocolate, with a decent bitter finish. Enjoyable.
