Gravity cask at the Ale Wagon's 20th Birthday Beer Festival, Leicester. Dark gold, clear with an uneven white head. Sweetish smell, a little bit medicinal with some woody and earth notes. Taste is sweet with a tangy/spicy notes, and some flavourful asteingent hops in the finish. The overall effect is a bit weird, I like it well enough and it certainly isn't a bitter by numbers, but it's messy.
