Cask gravity at Craft 100. It pours cloudy brown with a small beige head. The nose is sweetish, dried fruits, caramel, banana and a touch of spice. The taste is earthy, wood, caramel, candy, banana, sultana and raisin with a dry, sweetish finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Fine.

On cask at Chesterfield Alehouse - Robust brown body with a small off-white head. Nose is toast, nuts, caramel, Thornton’s banana toffee. The taste is more banana, slightly estery, bit of roastiness and sweet caramel. Spicy hop kick at the end, not too bad.
