8th Sep 2016: cask pint in a Blackpool Wetherspoons. Pours a dark amber with a red hue, on top a cream coloured blanket of foam. Malty but without the sweetness I was expecting, this is malt based but the hops rule the nose and taste giving a fairly bitter feel to the semi-red berry/fruity flavours.

Sampled @ GBBF day 2. Clear amber color, average sized off-white head. Don’t get a lot of aroma. Taste malts, a lot more fruity than I had expected, lightly bitter, a hint of twigs. Average to medium body and carbonation.
