Cask at Nottingham Beer & Cider Festival 2024. Gluten Free. Dark amber brown colour, off white foam head leaving lacing and aroma of roasted, malty, dried fruit, nutty. Taste is sweetish, roasty malt, some caramel, chocolate, and ashy, nutty, earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry malty nutty bitter finish. Quite drinkable

Bottle from Real Ale Store Newark and drunk at home. Clear amber russet with a thin lasting beige head. Rather a malty best bitter. Very light bitterness on the finish. Earthy hop aroma. It’s rather a good malty bitter. I like it. Reminds me why I love English bitter.
