Gravity cask at the GBBF Winter 2023 Festival, day 2 at Burton On Trent Town Hall, 17/02/23. Golden to light amber with an off white cap that fades to a swirl. Nose is caramel, biscuit, brown bread, grains. Taste comprises orange peel, bitter sweet tones, caramel, grains, syrup. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Okay cask affair if a touch on the sweet side and lacking bitterness.

Cask at Roebuck, Burton on Trent. Pours a golden amber with a small foamy off-white head and good lacing> There’s mainly malts in the aroma, plus some oranges. In the mouth traditional hops are to the fore at the start, plus some underlying caramel. Later, malts and stewed apples come through plus some traces of sulphur. Finish is quite dry. Not bad at all.

Half-pint, cask, shared with Finn at Devonshire Arms. Clear amber, covering beige head, fair lacing. Bread and caramel on the nose, promising. Hints of caramel butter to the taste profile, joined by moments of stewed fruits. Ends smooth with mid-sweet malts. Quite alright. (Burton-on-Trent 14.10.2022).

Delt med Rune. Gylden. Filmskum med litt farge. Spotlacing. Sukkertøyaroma. Smaken plommer. Tørr, bæraktig avslutning. Så vidt litt bitterhet.
