Cask Conditioned at J.D. Wetherspoon - Shakespear’s Head, London
Dark brown color, no head. Light caramel aroma; cheesy. It has a good flavor, some caramel and chocolate, well balanced, in a lean body, with butter and nuts, creamy cookies, mmmh...; correct bitterness. Subtle and very pleasant!

An old ale with a rusty-dark body topped by a filmy brownish layer. Weak smell of dark malts. Mild taste of chocolate added by a bite of liquorice. Velvet in the mouth [Third pint glass at Wetherspoons real ale festival, Standing Order in Edinburgh, 13.11.2008].

50 cL bottle, courtesy of fonefan. Pours dark brown with an orange glare and clear. Fully gone head. Mild chocolate and slight roasted malty. Pleasant aroma. Flavour is mild acidic and floral to spiced yet with a nice underlying malty and chocolate like base. Ends mild spiced and slight bitter.7-3-7-3-13=3.3 From cask at Edward Wylie. Pours dark brown with a minimal amber glare and a dense tan head. Roasted malty aroma with a mild caramel to chocolate note. Light bitterness arising out of a light acidic roasted malty flavour with a mild caramel sweetness. Holds a touch of liqourice too. Light roasted and malty finish. Smooth.6-3-7-3-13=3.2

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial rooms JDW, Bristol 1/11/08. Dark brown with reddish hints and a slight tan head. Sweet malt and dark fruit aroma. Flavour was sweet, with some caramel, dried fruit and earthy hops, before a short bitter finish. Good.
