Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Dark reddy-brown with a frothy head. Has a roasted nose with sweet darks malts in its taste. There's a hint of floralness.

Handpull cask at Broood, Leicester. Dark amber/red, clear with very little head. Light aroma of raisin, redcurrant, bready malts. Sweet fruity taste with a sharp hoppy bitterness in the finish. Stone fruit and foraged berry in the aftertaste. A bit too dull to be spectacular but still very good in a standard sessionable cask sort of way.
