Our deep, ruby-red ale graces the senses with comforting splashes of warm hints. Inside, you’ll find a rich, chocolatey taste, tucked away with liquorice and treacle. All enveloped in a velvety blanket, for a smooth, unmistakable texture and finish.

Cask at Oakes Barn, Bury St Esminds. Aroma is vaguely fruity. Malty. Clear copper gold. Thin frothy foamy white head. Malty led. Relatively chewy. Sweet fruit watered down by a vegetable broth for some reason. Struggles for some hoppy bitterness but ultimately it falters. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Snore.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours a hazy / cloudy gold with minimal off-white head. The aroma is mainly marmalade with some hints of generic citrus. In the mouth it is slightly bitter with a creamy texture, but some underlying sharpness. Flavour is oranges, nelon and werthers original sweets, plus some ginger coming through later. Sharpness increases in the finish which leads me to suspect this beer was going off and needs to be rerated.
