Keg @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Hazy dark-amber with a thin head. Has light caramel notes in its taste, but are a little more stated in its nose. It doesn't quite feel its strength but is close.

Cask at Craft CG. It pours hazy amber with an orange hue and foamy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, ripe tropical/stone fruits, peach, mango, passion fruit, fruit cake, sticky pine, caramel and resin. The taste is bitter, resinous, quite juicy, tropical fruit vibe, mango, papaya, peach, apricot, pine and a bit of alcohol sting on the back end. Medium body and soft carbonation. Pretty flavoursome and moreish. Good stuff.
