Cask at GBBF '22 day 1, 02/08/22. Mahogany brown with a beige cap. Nose is dusty hops, biscuit, dried fruit esters, brown bread, light cocoa sprinkle. Taste comprises biscuit, brown bread, toffee, earthy fruits, chocolate, light spice. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a dusty hop spattering. Fine but this would suit keg far more than cask.
