Third by cask on the 2nd day of GBBF Winter 2020, Sonnet Bar. Shared with Finn. Misty ruby-reddish body, bubbles on the top, scattered lacing. Dark malt-driven aromas with hints of berry-fruits. Stewed dark fruity flavours with earthy, mid-sweet malts. Prolonged sweet ending. Okay in smaller amounts. (Birmingham 05.02.2020).

Handpull cask at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Very dark reddish brown, flat with a ring of loose beige head. Odd smell: light, very malty, a bit sour like balsamic vinegar. Not that pleasant. However it tastes wonderfyl. Malty and sweet with notes of black cherry and delicate black tea. Finish is incredibly bitter with medicinal hops clinging to the back of the throat. A complex little changeling.
