500ml bottle, BBE March 2023; drank at home just after midnight, it's the 14th July 2022 now. Clean and clear dark amber, wispy white head. Caramel/toffee aroma and taste with a hedgerow berry undertone, nice semi-sweet bitter.

Cask at Old Harkers Arms. Pours a clear copper with a white head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has notes of bread and grains with a bit of hay and grass backing. Flavor has light fruits and grains with a bit of straw underlying.

Cask @ Seven Stars, Manchester. Amber-red with a creamy head. Has an easy drinking smoothish texture with a small sweetness in its nose. Has a subdued crispness in its taste more than anything else.

Cask, Shp and Mitre, Liverpool. Amber brown colour with a dissipating white head. Sweet malt aroma. Smooth mouthfeel. Some fruit in the flavour with a dry finish. Nothing too exciting going on really but passable.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] An amber-brown beer with a white head. The aroma contains notes of honey and malt - and so is the flavor leading to a dry end.

Cask at GBBF 2005. Bronze colour, some fruitiness that becomes slightly spicey but not a lot else on this beer
