On tap at the Brewhouse, Islington, 11/2015. Poured cloudy golden orange colour with a small lasting off white head. Aroma of pumpkin, and spice. Thin body, texture watery but also a bit sticky. Nice aroma but overall didn’t feel this really worked. Least favoured of the 6 tried.

Cask handpull at source. Light amber orange coloured pour with a halo of off white head. Aroma is spices, star anise, candied orange, raw nutty grains. Flavour is composed of semi sweet golden grains, hints of nuts and honey, spices are nicely incorporated and not too heavy handed, star anise and nutmeg come through. Palate is semi sweet and grainy, with moderate cask condition. Drinks OK.
