Oldham Beer Festival 2023. Extremely dark but not black. Dark malty with an imposing strength and a notable cask ageing about it, its relaxed aroma with perhaps a hint of chocolate about it is pleasant.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2018 - Hackney, London. Day 2. Pours black-brown with a frothy tan head. Nicely rounded, assertive but not aggressive, has some hearty toasted malts, scored earth and baking cocoa, secondary notes of burnt grass. Medium to full bodiednwith fine carbonation; good condition. Lightly warming finish, more ashy roast, some fudge, baking cocoa, sturdy earthy bitterness. Toothy. Very solid.
