Cask @ Leggers Beer Festival, Dewsbury. Hazy dark brown, no head. Has a soapy dark roasted malt, although not the most pleasant of combinations despite being very light in this respect. Suggestions of egg in its aroma and taste!

Cask @ GBBF14. Smooth and pale start. Not much deepness, not too intense. The aftertaste has malt there, not too dry, a bit boring sweetish-malty brew!
