Cask at Shrewsbury Arms, Stafford. Pours almost black with a small cream head. Dark fruits to the fore in the aroma, plus traces of chocolate. In the mouth it has a creamy texture. Malts are the first flavour to hit the tongue, but dark fruits are very close behind, and become the mainstay. Hints of lemon and chocolate too, but overall not much happening. Swiggable, but somewhat boring.

29/11/2019. Straight from cask at the Royal William, Stowmarket. Pours very dark brown with a small short lasting beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruits, texture and berries. Moderate sweetness and light roasted bitterness, touch of tartness. Slight ashy finish. Possibly past it’s prime.
