Cask @ The Pheasant, Wellington, Shropshire. Pours dark with well-appointed tan foam. Aroma has liquorice, salt, roast. Taste presents liquorice, salt, roast with a dry bitterness. Quite flavoursome but the salt / liquorice aspects are a touch too rich for me.

27th April 2019; gravity poured cask half-pint in the Sawley Junction Micro Pub by Long Eaton railway station. A tanned foam topping sat on a black body. Malty little number with ground coffee being the aroma and taste, mostly. Some dark chocolate notes also in both the nose and fairly dry flavour.

Cask-conditioned at the Cornubia, Bristol 8/4/2016. Near black in colour, with a frothy, off-white, head. Aroma of chocolate, berry fruits and toasted malts. Flavour had more chocolate, some lactose sweetness, rich and roasted malts, leading to a dryish finish with a slight tangy edge. An enjoyable stout.

Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Extremely dark with a small creamy off-white head. Light tasting stout, with a gentle sweetness rather than any obvious roasted malts. It has a very palatable texture.
