Black brown colour, slight white head. Aroma of hops, red fruits, fruity, floral, bread crust. Malty flavour, light(!) hops, quite sweet, earth. Quite dry. Bitter, astringent finish.

Cask(@Cock Tavern): Deep amber coloured with a reddish sheen and a small off-white foamy layer; bread-crusts and mild traces of sour dough in the nose, leafy hops detectable; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied expected; lingering herbal-hoppy and also a bit sourish-toasty finish. O.K., but not exciting...

Cask@Cock Tavern, London (RBESG) - brown pour with an off-white head. Aroma and taste is fruity and malty, not very mild like to my palate. Not sure on this.

Cask at Cock Tavern. Very dark brown to black color with a nice dark red glare coming through, white head that leaves good lacing. Smell and taste malts, a hint of yeast, some roast, lightly butter. Average body and carbonation.
