Cask at Pigs Ear. Opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry, a very mild viscosity, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts, a mildly tangy dark chocolate, smooth and tasty. Rich ripe pruney fruits, a little date. Light smooth and semi dry finish. Yeah, old skool done very well indeed.

Gravity Cask at day 2 of the 41st Pigs Ear Beer Festival, 03/12/2025.
Black topped with a tan head.
Nose is roast malts, charr, dried fruit rinds, chocolate shavings.
Taste comprises roasted bite, molasses, toffee, fruit cake mix, chocolate dipped raisins.
Medium bodied with bite, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a kiss of alcohol.
Okay sipper but lacks a little depth for me at 8%.

Меня удивил данный Имперец. Прям добротный бласт про зе паст. Классика стаута, черный шоколад, немного кофе, жженки, при этом баланс.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with minimal scummy beige head but good lacing. There’s roasted malts and dried fruits in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet and creamy but with a slight underlying bitterness. There’s a full bodied flavour of roasted malts, alcohol and liquorice with dried fruit and vanilla coming through later. Finish is slightly dry, fruity and very boozy. This is excellent – and dangerously drinkable !

500ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Jan 23. Brought by me. Pours dark, good beige head. Aroma of dark malts. Earthy, woody feel with a gentle bitterness, medium bodied, expected more malt body, but it's a lovely drop, good to taste a bit of history.

Keg tap at the Ale Wagon, Leicester. Dark brown, almost opaque with a loose beige head. Balsamic vinegar, old leather, strong red wine and rubber in the aroma. Bittersweet vinous taste with notes of sourness near the finish. Flat oily body. A tough beer to love, but maybe one to respect.
