Can: Nearly as black as ink, small persistent off-white foamy layer, moderate both bitter-sweet and sourish aroma of toasted malt, dried fruits and ashes; moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour with a well hidden sweetness, almost medium bodied and quite soft; lingering dry fruity-ashy and bitter finish. Good...

Cask handpull at Clove Hitch Liverpool. Black beer lasting tan head. Some dark chocolate some roast dryness on the finish. Some juiciness some blackcurrant but overall a little thin. Some blackcurrant jam. Ok. Just. Cask conditioning needs work.
