Cask Gravity at Pig’s Ear 2015. It pours darkest brown with a small beige head. The nose is toasty, grainy, liquorice, umami, salted liquorice and a touch of smoke. The taste is toasty, earthy, some acidity, charred wood, peppery spice and cocoa with a dry, mildly astringent finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. I found this a touch too light and weak. So-so.
