GBBF Day 3. Cask. Clear amber beer, fair pale tan head. Palate is light and crispy. Smooth dry malts. Mildly tangy dried fruits, turning sweeter. Trace of something barrelly on the finish, but no obvious rum. Mild spicy linger. All right.

Sampled @ GBBF day 3. Clear a bit rusty orange color, virtually no head. Smell and taste malts, nice wood (mostly in the aroma), a touch of liquor, nicely fruity and nicely bitter. Medium to full body, medium carbonation. Nice one!

Cask - Light apple and sweet rum with a hint of caramel. Clear copper with a thin bubbly head. Caramel and harsh booze. This did not work well.

Cask gravity at the 2014 GBBF. Orange light amber coloured pour with no head. Aroma is sweet rum raisin, stale caramel, diacetyl and jot alcohol. Flavour is caramel, rum berry, raisin, sweet caramel, vanilla oak. Reminds me of innis and gun. Sweet sweet caramel and low carbonation.. Poor.
